How many days per week do students attend Urban College?
Flexible Attendance and Learning Structure
Urban College is a specialist registered college, designed to offer a flexible and individualised approach to education. This structure allows us to adapt learning timetables to suit student needs while maintaining strong academic progress and wellbeing support.
For Year 10 students, classes are scheduled onsite four days per week, with one day dedicated to remote learning. This balance helps students build independence, manage their time effectively, and transition gradually toward senior study expectations. Remote learning days are structured and supported, with teachers providing guidance and online resources to ensure students stay on track.
Students enrolled in the VCE-VM (Vocational Major) program attend onsite three days per week, combining classroom learning with one day of remote study. This model provides flexibility for students to manage vocational or work-based training while maintaining engagement with core subjects.
For those undertaking a VETiS (Vocational Education and Training in Schools) subject — either through Urban College or another provider — students are expected to attend onsite for their VET classes. These sessions are a key component of the VCE-VM pathway, giving students valuable hands-on experience and nationally recognised qualifications that complement their academic studies.
This flexible timetable ensures that Urban College students receive a well-rounded education that balances structured learning, practical experience, and the development of self-management skills essential for life beyond school.
