School Profile
Purpose
John Monash Science School (JMSS) is Victoria’s first specialist secondary school focussed on science, mathematics and associated technologies. Formed as a result of a unique partnership between the Department of Education and Early Childhood Development (DEECD), now the Department of Education and Training (DET), and Monash University, the school accommodates up to 660 students from years 10, 11 and 12 after beginning with 191 Year 10 students in 2010.
The Mission of John Monash Science School is to develop in all our students the skills, attributes, knowledge and balanced perspectives which will best enable them to make a positive difference to the world they will both inherit and co-create.
We will achieve this by:
continuing to increase student interest in, enthusiasm for, and engagement with science, mathematics and emerging technologies;
continuing to support our students to reach their academic potential;
enhancing teacher skills and knowledge in science, mathematics and emerging technologies, thereby contributing to improvements in student engagement;
continuing to develop and modelling best practice in all aspects of teaching and learning in these areas;
continuing to build capacity in JMSS students to enable them to succeed in both higher education and pathways beyond education.
Our Vision is to become a nationally and internationally recognised centre of excellence and innovation in the later years of education in science, mathematics and associated technologies, responding to global directions and priorities in scientific research and knowledge creation.
We seek to build and strengthen connections with globally renowned science and education-oriented organisations to inform and enhance the opportunities for every member of the school community. John Monash Science School is now an executive member of the International Science Schools Network, formed in Moscow in August 2014. We are now uniquely placed to achieve this vision.
Our school will continue to contribute to state-wide improvement in science, mathematics and technology outcomes
4
through our work with our own students, and also with local and remote schools. Our work with Monash University to create and share unique cutting-edge curriculum programs has been a significant investment in helping achieve this outcome, and the establishment of the Emerging Sciences Victoria platform to deliver this curriculum to students across Victoria will continue to spread its influence. We will continue to build leadership capacity in school leaders and teachers to ensure the ongoing development of both relevant and engaging curriculum and effective pedagogies is maintained within JMSS and communicated to the wider educational community. This will contribute to Victoria’s long term economic growth and prosperity.
Values John Monash Science School aims to develop fully the talents and capacities of all students and staff underpinned by UNESCO’s Four Pillars of Education, with its previous Strategic Plan structured around them:
• Learning to live together • Learning to know • Learning to do • Learning to be
The school’s Learner Developmental Framework uses the pillars to define the core skills, behaviours and attributes of effective learners which we develop in all staff and students through our work. The Staff Code of Professional Practice, due to be reviewed in 2016, further outlines the practices and expectations we as teachers and educational support staff have agreed to put in place to achieve excellence in learning and high quality professional relationships throughout the school. The Four Pillars permeate all dimensions of our work, from day-to-day lessons, to staff performance plans and strategic decision-making.
JMSS believes that the ongoing development of leadership capacity in its staff and students is at the core of any and all success. The Leadership Team structure was reviewed in 2015 and the new team will be in place to lead the development of this strategic plan by the start of 2016. Each member of this Leadership Team is a leader of learning and a leader of people. The team works closely together to ensure the policies, protocols and procedures put in place at JMSS honour the school’s Learner Developmental Framework and Code of Professional Practice. Professional learning for all members of the staff is key, and the openness to new learning is a core attribute sought in every new appointment. The development of leadership skills and attributes in students is also a key platform of both the formal and the informal curriculum at JMSS.

Environmental Context John Monash Science School is the first school of its kind in Victoria and one of only three such specialist science providers in Australia. Opening for the first time in 2010 with 197 Year 10 students, the school has over 640 students from Years 10 to 12 and over 80 full and part time members of staff. Some 25 of these are Education Support staff. The Leadership Team comprises three Principal Class Officers, eight Leading Teachers, the Business Manager and the Manager of Strategic Partnerships and Initiatives. The facilities and infrastructure are multi-storey and based on a ‘learning commons’ design to facilitate the variety of flexible teaching and learning approaches characteristic of the school. The school hosts leading-edge technology resources which have provided an ideal opportunity to further enhance and enrich learning. Monash University provided the site for the school building at the southern end of the Science, Technology, Research and Innovation Precinct (STRIP).
JMSS has formed strong partnerships with researchers and academics in a broad mix of scientific fields at Monash University, sharing resources and expertise and ensuring the courses offered at JMSS are rich, challenging, contemporary and relevant. JMSS has also proactively developed professional learning programs for teachers using our existing expertise, and in partnership with Monash University’s Faculties of Science, Education and others as appropriate. Relationships with other state science centres and relevant professional associations are emergent.
The curriculum at JMSS is challenging and stimulating and allows students to explore the leading issues pervading current scientific research and understanding, while still building solid foundational expertise in the areas of Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Earth Science, Mathematics, Engineering, Biomedical Science, Geography and Computer Science, among others. It is designed to allow students to integrate knowledge across these arbitrary boundaries and explore new ideas in much the same way as science researchers do from day-to-day. The aim was to create new programs and pedagogies firstly for the Victorian Essential Learning Standards (VELS) and now AusVELS (the National Curriculum), and new offerings within the Victorian Certificate of Education (the VCE). The curriculum in Year 1 comprises studies in English, Mathematics, Core Science, Enrichment Science (elective-based), Emerging Technologies, Issues Studies (part project-based) and Personal Learning which also includes Physical Education. A full range of VCE studies is available for students in Years 2 and 3, with enhancement opportunities existing for all students to access study at a higher level. This includes access to University Extension studies for suitably qualified students in Year 3.
Our students originate from over 100 schools across the state, from all education sectors and from both metropolitan and regional centres. Gender balance is roughly 55% male to 45% female, and a rich and diverse ethnic mix is evident. Students are selected after analysis of written assessments, activities and interviews, and the school is continuing to refine these processes into the future.
