The central values of Burc College include the development of positive moral attitudes within the students, as well as encouraging manners, ethics and proactive behaviour. Our mission is to achieve academic excellence and to prepare the students to participate in contemporary Australian society as informed, responsible, active, caring and contributing citizens. We aim to accomplish this by ensuring our staff members are devoted to the development of the students' intellectual, social, emotional and physical capacities in an atmosphere of equal opportunity. A distinctive feature of Burc College is that its strength is in its diversity, where multicultural values and principles are actively supported and nurtured. The embracement of these values and general attitude of acceptance at the school has a very positive effect on the community. By promoting tolerance and fairness, close ties have been formed among children, staff, parents and communities. Burc College has also seen promising academic achievements from the students, having performed admirably in recent years in the national assessments. Despite humble beginnings with only 25 students, we have seen continued progress and success since opening in 2005. We look forward to steady growth and strong development in the future.
