The College achieves its mission by providing a holistic approach to the education of all students. The College offers a range of academic and VET subjects that allow its students to follow a diverse pathway to future options. Students have the opportunity to be involved in a range of sporting and cultural activities including Dance, Musicals and Drama productions. Some unique features of the College are the split campus arrangement for Years 8 and 9 at the Enoggera Campus and Years 10-12 at the Mitchelton Campus. This arrangement provides a small and caring community for the younger students during the first two years of their secondary education. The Year 10 academic year is seen as a transition year for senior schooling and students in Year 10 are exposed to introductory subjects mirroring the style and assessment of senior subjects. The school plays an important role in the community through its service programs and strong community links. Students in all year levels are involved in service programs to the wider community. This service to the community is an important feature of Mt Maria College.
