John Monash Science School

John Monash Science School (JMSS) is Victoria's first specialist science and maths school, and one of only three such specialist schools in Australia. An expression of a unique educational partnership between the Victorian Department of Education and Training (DET) and Monash University, John Monash Science School exists to advance students with an interest in pursuing endeavours within the fields of science, mathematics and associated technologies. Operating under the vision of becoming a nationally and internationally recognised centre for excellence in innovative, research-based teaching and learning, mathematics, associated technologies, resource development and pedagogy, John Monash Science School was officially opened in 2010 and has grown significantly, consistently producing outstanding graduates, and delivering high-quality, innovative and passion-driven education in science, mathematics and technologies. Increasingly, John Monash Science School is emerging as a ‘school for all Victorians' - championing a range of distance education, outreach and professional development initiatives to support the advancement of STEM-related teaching and learning across the state, and contributing to Victoria's long term economic, social, cultural and environmental goals by delivering world-class, immersive science-drive education.
