Doxa School Bendigo is a Catholic Flexible Learning Setting established to meet the need for an alternative option for education for vulnerable youth in the wider Bendigo region. The school complements other alternate educational providers in the region and it is open to students from all sectors.

Doxa School promotes a Positive Behaviour Program that encourages all members of the school community to be Safe, be Kind and be Curious.

All of our programs at Doxa School are informed by a Whole Person Student Centred approach informed by our key pillars;  

Our Catholic Identity, Choice Theory, Trauma Sensitive Practice and Social and Emotional Literacy.

Our aim is to re-engage students who are at risk of not completing their compulsory years of education because of a range of challenges or barriers that affect their ability to engage in learning in a mainstream school setting. It provides supported and flexible education options for vulnerable students 13 years of age and older whose educational journey has been a challenging one for them.

Our school operates under the governance of Catholic Education Sandhurst Limited (CES Ltd) and Doxa Youth Foundation is a welcome contributor to our community. Doxa School Bendigo educates in the Marist tradition of service to the marginalised and vulnerable, continuing our relationship in this way with a former Co-Steward, The Marist Brothers.

Our current programs provide for students in years 7 to 12 in enrolment of 12 months or more to support their re-entry into their mainstream school or other appropriate educational settings. We also transition students to vocational pathways. We have a strong focus on Literacy, Numeracy and Social and Emotional Learning to help our students build the resilience and confidence they need to take the next steps towards success on their life’s journey.

We currently have room for up to 50 students to be enrolled in our community and we are committed to building strong and supportive relationships with our students and their families, and also the various organisations and individuals that provide a range of support for young people in our region.
