Enrolments for 2026 are open

Cobblebank Secondary School is a supported inclusion school. Supported inclusion schools are local government schools with some extra accessibility features. These features help them teach and support more students with a disability.

In its first year of operation, Cobblebank Secondary School will open to Year 7 students only. An additional year level will be added each following year. The 2026 school zones are available at findmyschool.vic.gov.au.
