What is the ACE Program?

The ACE Program at Cheltenham Secondary College is a Year 7-9 program that aims to foster higher-order thinking, complex reasoning and creativity to nurture high achievers. It provides opportunities to enrich the student learning experience, enabling students to explore their studies in greater depth. Studies in the core subjects of English, Maths, Science and Humanities will be enriched in this program. At the conclusion of this program, students will be able to access one VCE subject in Year 10.

The program will mirror a standard Year 7, 8 and 9 curriculum with a focus on encouraging skills that enable students to self-regulate their learning. The program will align with the core school values of Respect, Responsibility, Personal Best and Sense of Community. The focus of the program is to expand capabilities in order to help students find connections and transfer their learning experiences from the classroom to the real world.
