As Ballarat’s only Catholic co-educational secondary college, Damascus College offers innovative and progressive learning and teaching that inspires and challenges students to become their best and to contribute confidently to the global community. Our diverse curriculum caters for various post-secondary pathways, providing young people with a solid foundation on which to build their lives, by providing high quality, well rounded education that focuses on the development of the whole person.
We understand that each student has individual learning needs and aim to provide classroom activities which differentiate the abilities and learning styles of students. Damascus College encourages young people to think, to analyse and to assess. Rather than teaching them what to think, we teach them how to become flexible, creative, analytical thinkers.

Our most pivotal goal is for students to reach their full academic, emotional and social potential and we do this by providing them with the tools and support they need to achieve this outcome.
Students are encouraged to participate in all activities available at the College, regardless of their skill level, as we firmly believe that a well-rounded education provides young people with the best start for a bright future.
We are fortunate to be able to provide students with a contemporary learning environment, with access to innovative technology, flexible and modern classrooms, and open spaces and bushland to enjoy and develop a strong appreciation and commitment to the natural environment in which we live.
Within this unique setting, our students are encouraged to learn and practise leadership skills, to develop a strong sense of identity, to be kind and generous to others, to use their gifts and talents to help those less fortunate than themselves, and to stand firm in the knowledge that they are part of a caring and supportive Catholic College community.
Students graduate from Damascus College with a strong sense of their own identity and worth, and an appreciation of Christianity in the Catholic tradition.
