Scotch College is an independent Presbyterian day and boarding school for boys, located in Hawthorn, an inner-eastern suburb of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.
Studies have found that Scotch had more alumni mentioned in Who's Who in Australia (a listing of notable Australians) than any other school.[4][5][6][7] It is one of the wealthiest schools in Australia.[8]
In 2010 The Age reported that Scotch College "has educated more of Australia's most honoured and influential citizens than any other school in the nation", based on research that revealed its alumni had received more top Order of Australia honours than any other school.[9]
The college was established in 1851 as The Melbourne Academy in a house in Spring Street, Melbourne, by the Rev. James Forbes of the Free Presbyterian Church of Victoria.[10] It is the oldest extant secondary school in Victoria[2][11] and celebrated its sesquicentenary in 2001.
Scotch is a founding member of the Associated Public Schools of Victoria (APS),[12] and is affiliated with the International Coalition of Boys' Schools,[13] the Junior School Heads Association of Australia (JSHAA),[14] the Australian Boarding Schools' Association (ABSA),[11] the Association of Independent Schools of Victoria (AISV),[1] and the Headmasters' and Headmistresses' Conference.[15] The School is a former member of the G20 Schools Group and a current member of the Global Alliance of Leading-Edge Schools.

History
The School at its former East Melbourne site (circa 1906) prior to moving to the current site at Hawthorn
The Quadrangle at the school's current Hawthorn site (2009)
The Junior School (shown 2012) was the first part of the school to move to the current Hawthorn site
Scotch College is the oldest surviving secondary school in Victoria. Its foundation was due to the initiative of the Rev. James Forbes, of the Free Presbyterian Church, who arrived in 1838 as the first settled Christian minister in what became the colony of Victoria in 1851. It is "the outcome of the old Scottish ideal of education", in which church and school were inextricably connected. The school opened on 6 October 1851, under the name of the Melbourne Academy in a small house in Spring Street, with Robert Lawson, a Scot from Edinburgh University, as the first principal. The house was soon outgrown, as was a larger one on the northwest corner of Spring and Little Collins Streets (later the Ulster Family Hotel) and the Church applied to the government for a grant of land. Two acres were reserved for the school on Eastern Hill and substantial new buildings were erected there in 1853. The cost was met partly by a government grant and partly from funds raised by the friends of the school.
Lawson resigned in 1856. Under his successor, Alexander Morrison, the school grew and prospered; it came under the oversight of the newly formed Presbyterian Church of Victoria in 1859. Morrison had been Rector of Hamilton Academy and remained at Scotch for 46 years. William Still Littlejohn, who took over the school in 1904, served for 29 years, and his successor, Colin Macdonald Gilray, for 19. So, when the school became the first in Victoria to celebrate its centenary, Gilray was only the fourth principal.
Gilray was succeeded in 1953 by R. Selby Smith, an Old Rugbeian who had served in the Royal Navy during the war and was at the time of his appointment Deputy Director of Education for Warwickshire. Smith resigned in 1964 to become the Foundation Dean of Education at Monash University.
C. O. Healey, who had been Headmaster of Sydney Grammar School since 1951, succeeded Smith. Healey retired in January 1975.
In the following May, P. A. V. Roff, formerly Headmaster of Scotch College, Adelaide, was installed as the seventh principal of the college. Roff's tenure, though a brief seven years, was characterised by an expanding voice for staff in the day-to-day management of the school, the establishment of a Foundation Office at the School under the direction of a Development Officer and the widening of the House System to provide greater depth in pastoral care. His last few years saw the school in dispute over ownership and, for the principal and his school community, it was a time of stress. In 1980 the decision was made to incorporate the school and a new Council was appointed, with representatives from the Presbyterian Church, the Old Scotch Collegians' Association and the community at large.
F. G. Donaldson, a vice principal from Wallace High School (Northern Ireland), with a Ph.D. in atomic physics from Queens University Belfast, succeeded Roff in 1983. Under his principalship there was a significant building program that created new facilities for the education of boys, the development of ICT for administrative and educational purposes, and enhanced pastoral care of students.
I. Tom Batty was appointed as the ninth principal of Scotch and installed into office on 14 July 2008. Prior to his appointment he was Housemaster of Villiers House, Eton College in the UK. The early years of Batty's tenure have seen the introduction of a new House-based pastoral care structure in the Upper School, which began at the start of the 2011 school year.
Name
The name "Scotch College" appears at the entrance to the boarding precinct (2009)
The School was originally called "The Melbourne Academy", after its location, when it opened in 1851. In its early years it was also known as
Mr Lawson's Academy - named after the first principal, Robert Lawson- The Grammar School
The Scots' College - the college of the Scots
The Scotch College - the college that is Scottish
For a while all of these names were used concurrently until in the 1860s the usage settled on "The Scotch College", which was later shortened to be simply "Scotch College".[16]
Coat-of-arms and motto
The Monash Gates feature the school's coat of arms (right side) and the symbol of the Presbyterian Church (left side)
The School's coat-of-arms (shown above, right) features the following elements:[17]

Governance and denominational affiliation
Littlejohn Memorial Chapel (2009)
Scotch is an incorporated body governed by a Council made up of three groups; Five persons (usually Old Boys) nominated by the Old Scotch Collegians' Association (Group B), Five Presbyterian Church of Victoria nominees (Group A) and seven persons nominated by Council from the community at large (Group C), usually with some connection with the School and the Christian church.[22]
Chairmen of the Council have included Sir Arthur Robinson, Sir Archibald Glenn, Sir James Balderstone, David Crawford AO Michael B Robinson AO and The Hon. David A. Kemp.
In 1977, most congregations of the Australian Presbyterian church merged with the Methodist and Congregationalist churches in Australia to form the Uniting Church in Australia. The Presbyterian Church of Australia continued with the remaining congregations. In the split, Scotch College, Melbourne was allocated to the Presbyterian Church of Australia by the Property Commission of the Presbyterian Church, which included an even number of representatives from the Uniting Church and the continuing Presbyterian Church as well as independent commissioners. At the time the Scotch Council unsuccessfully appealed this decision.[23]
