Learning & Teaching
14 July
Damascus College offers a holistic educational experience with a range of innovative learning and teaching subjects and programs, to maximise the educational outcomes for our students. A wide variety of interests and skills are catered for as part of the diverse Damascus curriculum, that will enable our students to be their best and reach their desired career pathway.
2022 subject selection is now upon us and Damascus students are encouraged to complete the relevant application forms in preparation for Term 3 TA interviews.
Parents and students are recommended to access the Pathways booklets that provide a comprehensive list of subjects available per year level, which are now accessible via the Damascus website. These booklets are a wonderful resource to assist students in choosing their electives and pathways.
There will be a Subject Selection, Pathways and Careers Evening for parents and students on Thursday 15 July and a Careers Expo on Monday 19 to Thursday 22 July, held on campus for students to ask more questions to subject teachers.
It certainly is an exciting time for our young people to dream and dream large, about what their future might hold, and what exciting careers they might aim for, once they step beyond our Damascus College doors.
