When you’re choosing where to build your family’s future, schools are high on the list. Located at 80 Woodfield Avenue, Clyde Secondary College is one of the newest secondary schools in the area and just a five minute walk from Riverfield. Accommodating up to 1,300 local students, including 100 places for students with disability, they celebrated their first-ever VCE results last year and it’s safe to say the college is off to a flying start!

 

A record-breaking first year

In 2025, a class of 21 Year 10 students took VCE General Mathematics Units 3 & 4 early, two years ahead of when most students sit a Year 12 subject. The results speak for themselves:

  • Every student achieved a study score of 34 or above.
  • The class median was 39, with a mean of 39.7.
  • The highest score in the class was 46.
  • 4% of students scored 40 or higher, which is the top 9% in the state.

The college reports that it was the top school in the state for VCE General Mathematics, across both public and private schools. Education ranking site KIS Academics also lists Clyde Secondary College first among Victoria’s government non-selective schools for the subject. What an incredible way to begin their VCE journey and we can’t wait to see what they achieve in 2026!

Why it matters for Riverfield families

For many families, school quality is one of the biggest factors when comparing estates. Having a high-performing public secondary school on your doorstep means:

  • Shorter school runs: less time in the car and more time for the things that matter.
  • Peace of mind for the years ahead: high-performing schools maintain steady real estate demand.
  • Eliminate private school fees: buying near a top-performing public school means you can skip the high tuition fees.
  • A connected community: local kids can go to school alongside friends from their own neighbourhood.
