Coburg High is a member of the Northern Melbourne VET Cluster (NMVC), which ensures students from our school have access to a wide range of Vocational Education and Training (VET) subjects. However, there is presently a significant shortage of skilled, trained trades people teaching VET in schools around Australia. To facilitate more VET training in secondary schools across Melbourne’s northern suburbs the NMVC is asking eligible experienced trades people to Trade up to Teaching. If you’d like to find out more about VET teaching, explore the pathway into the classroom and discover the benefits of teaching VET please visit:

and complete the expression of interest form online. Also, feel free to let any trades-qualified people in your network know about this fantastic opportunity, which will help to ensure our schools students have the best opportunities to access VET.
