COMPLETING A VCE SUBJECT WHILE IN YEAR 10

Year 10 students are encouraged to undertake a VCE Unit 1 & 2 subjects. Students must have the recommendation of teachers and generally do not undertake more than one VCE subject.

FOCUS

The focus on critical and creative thinking and real-world learning is maintained and the student’s capacity to work collaboratively is extended through a broad range of student groupings. In Year 10, students are given the opportunity to accelerate their learning by commencing a VCE or VET subject, allowing them to experience the rigorous demands of the final years of schooling.

FURTHER OPPORTUNITIES

In addition to these extensive curriculum opportunities, students are supported through a range of wellbeing and extra-curricular offerings.
