Genazzano focuses on providing a diverse and innovative education, relative to students now and for their future. Genazzano’s bespoke programs reflect student interest, nurture aspirations and ignite creativity, taking learners beyond the conventional classroom and curriculum. Teachers have dived into gamification, neuroscience, design and technologies, to create unique programs and microcredential courses with flexible learning and hybrid delivery options. Included are the ‘Future Skills’ programs, which focus on the development
of complex competencies and capabilities that enrich students’ capacity for adaptability, interaction, personal growth and tenacity. An example is ‘The Edge,’ a physical challenge cohort subject promoting resilience,
confidence, teamwork and leadership. Another flagship program is ‘nextGEN’ that targets practical learning through digital work-readiness courses and enterprise programs. NextGEN links with the College’s
microcredential program and recognises a range of learning experiences. Genazzano also o!ers extension and professional learning opportunities ‘beyond’ the school curriculum. These typically have a practical experience,
folio or mini-internship component. Students can design their own personalised and flexible program aligned with their interests, ambitions and individual circumstances. Known as ‘Studio Beyond’, this initiative
revolves around four Centres of Excellence: Global Enterprises, Innovation and Technology, Sports Development and Creative Industries; positioned to promote employability and a step into the professional arena. Students can acquire credentials in areas such as music composition, computing, technical stage production, sport psychology, event planning and podcasting, again allowing them to build skills, confidence and experience.Genazzano is a front-runner in this arena – designing, creating and innovating learning for this third millennium. The program is rapidly evolving with more courses in development, such as professional sports coaching, an introduction to medical engineering and developing philanthropic initiatives.
