Parade College is to establish a Senior Sport Academy to provide students with the opportunity to develop the physical, social and emotional aspects of their life.

Commencing in 2018, and based at the Bundoora Campus, the Senior Sport Academy will be founded to complement the true essence of sport itself, as a means of promoting the pursuit of personal excellence, developing an awareness, understanding and acceptance of individuals, and respecting teammates, officials and fellow competitors.

The Academy will be tailored to provide senior student athletes access to;

• a flexible, supportive and “athlete friendly” academic environment, through a program covering essential learning and leading to graduation with either Victorian Certificate of Applied Learning (VCAL) or Victorian Certificate of Education (VCE);
• quality coaching;
• competition & training opportunities matched to the athlete’s development and potential;
• sport science services such as fitness testing, performance analysis, sports psychology and physiotherapy;
• work experience and career education support and planning;
• a personal development program specific to the student athlete; and
• a pathway into sport-related University Undergraduate Programs / Assoc Diploma /Assoc Bachelor etc. Programs or into sport-related employment.

Support will be provided to assist student-athletes to balance their demanding schedules and achieve success at school as well as in their personal and sporting lives.
