Select Entry Accelerated Learning

A Selective Entry Accelerated Learning (SEAL) program is a form of streaming used in secondary schools in Victoria, Australia to provide a focussed educational environment for academically gifted children. The program uses a range of tests, reports and interviews to select suitable children, who are then taught a specialised curriculum that allows them to complete years 7-10 in 3 years. Students in SEAL programs are also encouraged to participate in a wide range of extra-curricular activities that reinforce their academic curriculum areas, such as maths competitions. The SEAL programs in Victoria were pioneered by The University High School in Parkville.
