A Mission-Driven College Committed to Excellence and Growth 

Salesian College is a mission-driven Catholic school educating boys from Years 7 to 12 across two campuses in Chadstone, Victoria. The College fosters a values-led learning environment that prioritises student growth and wellbeing. With nearly 1,000 students and a dynamic staff community, Salesian is committed to excellence not only in education but also in the systems and infrastructure that support it. Technology plays a vital role in enabling this mission, and the College sought to ensure its digital environment was secure, empowering and aligned with its long-term goals. 

Preparing for the Future: The Need for a Long-Term ICT Vision 

Salesian College was navigating increasing compliance demands and growing cyber risks, while also questioning whether its technology stack was truly fit for purpose. Leadership lacked visibility into the staff experience and the maturity of their technology environment. Without a clear understanding of vulnerabilities or priorities, it was difficult to plan effectively for future investment. The College needed more than a technical audit. It required insight, clarity and a roadmap that could guide strategic decisions and support its people.

We needed to know if our technology was truly supporting our mission and where we were exposed.

Collaborative Review Delivering Insights for Sustainable Progress 

Salesian College partnered with RTG to deliver a secure, people-first ICT review that was both technically rigorous and easy to understand. The engagement was collaborative and tailored to the College’s needs. RTG conducted an Essential Eight cyber security assessment, a staff experience and satisfaction survey, and an information management analysis. These were complemented by workshops with leadership and IT teams to ensure alignment and shared understanding. The result was a clear, actionable technology and cyber security roadmap that gave the College visibility into its current state, identified gaps and opportunities, and provided practical steps to improve resilience, capability and staff experience. 

Empowering Leadership with Data-Driven Roadmaps and Greater Impact 

Salesian College saw measurable improvements across both technical and human dimensions. The roadmap developed provided a foundation for CAPEX and OPEX planning, helping leadership prioritise investment and address key cyber gaps. Staff reported better classroom technology and support, while the IT team gained clarity and direction. The overall impact was a more resilient and connected school environment, with leadership empowered to make informed decisions.

 

 

RTG has given us greater peace of mind by clearly identifying our risks and knowing that we have appropriate systems and support in place.
