About our Glen Waverley location
For more than a decade, families across Glen Waverley and the surrounding eastern suburbs have trusted the academy to help children and teenagers develop confidence, creativity and problem-solving through structured coding and robotics programmes.
Our approach goes beyond screen time. Students learn to think logically, build solutions and create with technology, guided by experienced educators in small, supportive groups — with clear pathways from beginner to advanced levels.
Today, Innovate Forge Academy extends that foundation into communication, creative writing, innovation and leadership, with a coaching-based approach built around Explore. Build. Apply. Master.
