The Allan Labor Government is making sure every Victorian gets a great education close to home – supporting schools to meet growing enrolments with state-of-the-art modular classrooms.

Steve McGhie today announced that Staughton College will receive a modern, double-storey modular classroom as part of the Labor Government’s investment in additional classrooms to help create more learning spaces.

Staughton College is among 4 schools across Victoria to receive a new classroom later this year providing an additional 75 Staughton College enrolment places.  

These modular buildings incorporate the latest innovations to provide teachers and students with modern learning environments.

They include double-glazed windows and improved insulation to reduce heat loss, special wall and ceiling linings to reduce internal noise reverberation, energy efficient design and external window shades.

Each have a flexible layout making them easy to adapt for different teaching and learning needs, while offering extra space to help meet increasing demand.

For the 2025 school year, the Government has invested $152.4 million to deliver additional classrooms in areas of need.

The program will fund the construction and delivery of 166 newly manufactured buildings to address enrolment growth.
