Plans for new Brimbank tech school

Architectural renders for a new Brimbank tech school have been released by the state government, giving locals a taste of what’s to come when the building is completed next year.

Brimbank Tech School will be located at Victoria University’s Sunshine campus and will provide unique learning environments for students pursuing STEM study and career pathways.

The state government said Brimbank Tech School will provide 14,000 students from 14 local secondary schools with immersive, hands-on STEM learning experiences to develop the skills and knowledge they need to succeed in emerging industries.

Students will receive free bus transportation from their schools, to participate in immersive high-tech programs at the tech school, which will be offered alongside regular schooling

There will be places for 120 students to access the school’s programs each day.

Deputy Premier and Education Minister Ben Carroll said the school will inspire more students to pursue STEM careers.

“We are backing students to learn beyond the classroom, keeping them engaged and building the vital STEM skills they need for the jobs of tomorrow.”

Another school, Dandenong Tech School, will be built at Chisholm Institute’s Dandenong campus for 13,500 students from 23 local secondary schools.

Brimbank and Dandenong tech schools are two of six new tech schools being rolled out across the state, with the first of these, Frankston Tech School, on track to welcome students next term.

The tech schools in Brimbank and Dandenong will be completed in the second half of 2026, along with tech schools in Hume, Wangaratta and Warrnambool.
