Ringwood Secondary College (commonly referred to simply as RSC or 'Ringaz' by the students) is a co-educational public secondary school located in the eastern suburb of Ringwood in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.

It provides education for years 7-12, though plans for 2009 are to phase out education for years 7-9. Year 11 and 12 students undertake the VCE program. There are currently approximately 1420 students enrolled at the school.

RSC offers an extensive range of VCE subjects as well as the Victorian Certificate of Applied Learning (VCAL) programme. The college has just recently built a new Automotive and Manufacturing Centre, home to the Australian Technical College Eastern Melbourne.

The Music and Performing Arts Program at Ringwood Secondary College includes three concert bands, four stage bands, three string ensembles and two choirs. In recent competitions, Melbourne School Bands Festival, Mt Gambier Generations in Jazz and the Royal South Street Competition, the school has received awards for its stage bands, strings ensembles and symphonic orchestra.
