Reaching for greater success

The Como Way

Como builds promising futures for our students through providing an excellent education and a rich range of curricula and extra-curricular opportunities.

Central to the students’ experience at Como is a school culture that promotes learning. The school is driven by the deep belief that every student is capable of successful learning and that it is the responsibility of every teacher to ensure that all students progress.

An important part of social learning at Como is what we call ‘The Como Way’.

Working with us

Como Secondary College provides a supportive working environment in which professional development is a priority.  The school has a mix of teachers at different stages of their careers. Graduates and new teachers to the school will be working alongside supportive colleagues who have the skills, knowledge to make their transition easier. 

It is expected that all teachers will collaborate and share the workload within the learning areas and the school in general. Decisions are made on the basis of what is best for the student.

History of Como Secondary College

Como Secondary College began as Como High School. The school was built in 1968 on a 30-acre site at the western end of the Collier Pine Plantation at a time of rapid expansion in the state. It was officially opened in 1969 and has gone on to build over 50 years of tradition.
