Nagle College offers a comprehensive curriculum that caters for a wide range of student interests and abilities. Our students have the opportunity to choose from a broad range of courses and subjects
Drawing from the Australian curriculum, students are building their capabilities in the areas of literacy, numeracy, ICT, critical and creative thinking, personal and social capability, ethical understanding and intercultural understanding. (ACARA - General Capabilities).
We recognise that each student learns at different rates and in different styles. So our curriculum is well-balanced, diverse and flexible, allowing our students to proceed at their own pace, accelerate where appropriate and choose courses that allow them to consolidate their knowledge and skills.
Nagle College recognises the importance of offering different pathways of study and a wide range of subjects to cater for the academic and vocational needs of all our students.
Years 11 and 12 are the final stages of high school and our students are given the opportunity for greater specialisation and sophistication in their academic studies including Pathways, vocational education, open high school, traineeships and work placement.
