The programme-based reforms, such as at Mount Waverley Primary School and Mordialloc Secondary College, tended to be a strategic intervention that was issue-focused (student's disengagement). Mordialloc Secondary College's ILE emerged out of a long-term commitment to teacher action learning which focused on explicit meta-cognitive strategies and a desire to move away from 'teaching to the text', established practices which then informed the spatial redesign to utilise the space differently to achieve these aims.

The future for Mordialloc-Chelsea students wanting a career in the trades is under threat after drastic cuts to vocational education funding. The State Government has axed $12 million from secondary school Victorian Certificate of Applied Learning (VCAL) budgets. Mordialloc College stands to lose more than $50,000 next year as a result. Principal Michelle Roberts said the school, which had 20 VCAL students this year, had already committed to doubling the program in 2012. "It's a growing program for us so we certainly won't cut it," Ms Roberts said. "It means we will be tightening the screws even further on what is already a very limited budget." "It's extremely disappointing because the Government is basically cutting a vital pathway for students." Mordialloc Secondary College year 11 VCAL student Jony Abley said he would find it difficult to realise his dream of becoming a carpenter without the program. "VCAL is great because we're learning the real tools of how to be independent after school," the 17-year-old said.

The school will turn 100 in 2024 and a group of volunteers has been working behind the scenes to reveal the school's hidden gems... The goal is to update a digital, searchable database available to paying members of the Mordialloc College Alumni Association.
