Our STEM Academy delivers Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics in our specialised STEM Centre, and aims to inspire our students with an accelerated curriculum geared for the next generation of professions.
At Dianella Secondary College, we are committed to providing the best opportunities for your child. We seek to inspire students, allowing them to create and achieve greatness. One way this is being accomplished is through our strong partnership with Edith Cowan University (ECU).
Dianella Secondary College, in conjunction with ECU’s School of Education, has launched the University Pathway Scholarship for students. This scholarship offers support to students throughout their College journey, from Year 7, to assist them to obtain university entrance after Year 12. It is a powerful way for Dianella Secondary College to ensure students are achieving excellent results throughout their schooling.
Benefits for Students
Scholarship recipients will be enrolled into the specialist STEM extension program. STEM Education involves an integrated approach to learning by combining key elements of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics to engage students in a collaborative manner and address the needs of 21st century skills and employment opportunities.
Students are immersed in a creative environment, whereby they are encouraged and motivated to find solutions to real problems both locally and globally. This is achieved whilst simultaneously addressing the requirements of the WA and Australian curriculum.
Students will receive:
- An initial once off payment towards Collegel expenses;
- Ongoing coaching and mentoring sessions with an allocated mentor on site at Dianella Secondary College;
- Visits to ECU campuses, either for tours, guest lectures or workshops, or hands-on activities;
- Recipients will participate in activities conducted by ECU at Dianella Secondary College and ECU campuses (Mount Lawley & Joondalup locations)
Who is eligible for the scholarship?
The ECU Pathway Scholarship is open to Year 6 students commencing Year 7 at Dianella Secondary College. There are a limited number of scholarships on offer.
