AddressMolong Central School has an enrolment of 441 students from K-12 with 17.4% being Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander. The students come from a diverse range of socio-economic backgrounds and as a result, equity is of the utmost importance to the school community.
The school offers a wide curriculum and its unique K-12 environment allows staff and students to share opportunities across Primary and Secondary sections of the school. The school's results reflect consistency in all Key Learning Areas (KLAs) and an emphasis is placed on personal achievement. The school is well renowned for its ability to offer a diverse academic pattern of study in the senior years.
Extra-curricular opportunities in sport, debating, and the arts are embraced as significant opportunities for students from a small rural community.
The proportion of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students in the school is increasing and as a result, the school looks to improve the delivery of education to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students and ensure all students have significant exposure to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander perspectives throughout all KLAs.
The school currently has 48 teachers and 30 administration and Support staff, which includes additional temporary staff employed through school-based funding to better support the learning needs of all students.
