Why families choose us

Academic excellence

High expectations. Strong results. Every student achieving their personal best.

We have a proven record of strong academic results, with students consistently achieving above SSSG and state averages.

Sporting success

BVC where champions are made.

From school carnivals to regional, state and national success. Our elite athletes shine on the field as well as in the classroom. The Tuggerah Lakes Elite Athletes Program (TEAP) supports the development of talent and elite sports pathways.

Personalised learning

Learning designed around each student — because every journey is unique.

Expert teachers and tailored support mean every student can grow with confidence. No student is left behind — with Student Growth Conferences held twice a year to track progress, set goals, and ensure every learner continues to improve.

Diverse opportunities

A world of opportunities — where every student can discover their strengths and shine.

Through extra-curricular activities, creative and performing arts, the Duke of Edinburgh Award, and our work experience program, students build confidence, purpose, and pride in their achievements.

Belonging and Connection

A community where every student is known, valued, and belongs.

We pride ourselves on a strong sense of community where every student feels safe, supported, and that they belong. Positive relationships are at the heart of all we do

Proudly Public

Proudly public, proudly local, proudly BVC.

Guided by our motto, Ad Astra – To the Stars, we inspire excellence in all we do. We are proudly public, proudly local, and deeply committed to ensuring every student leaves ready to live a life of choice, not chance.

"Such an amazing and supportive school.” — a parent of Tuggerah Lakes Secondary College Berkeley Vale Campus
