At Victoria Junior College, we’re committed to empowering students to make informed decisions about their futures. Our Education, Career Guidance (ECG) & Scholarships Programme is designed to help Victorians explore their passions, refine their goals, and plan their next steps with confidence.

This dynamic programme equips students with the tools and insights they need to succeed in an ever-evolving world. Key objectives of our ECG Programme include:

Staying Ahead: Providing up-to-date information about the ever-changing education and career landscape.
Discovering Your Potential: Helping Victorians identify their interests, skills, and values, and align them with future educational and career opportunities.
Achieving Your Aspirations: Supporting successful applications to universities and scholarships with tailored resources and expert guidance.

Key ECG Programmes and Events

We’ve curated a series of impactful events and initiatives to ensure every Victorian is future-ready:
