School Based Traineeships & Apprenticeships
At Greater Shepparton Secondary College we welcome student participation in School Based Traineeships and Apprenticeships (SBAT)
What is a School Based Traineeship or Apprenticeship?
A school-based traineeship is an agreement between the trainee and respective employer whereby the employer agrees to provide training in a specific industry, and the trainee agrees to work and learn, continuing their secondary schooling whilst being employed. Traineeships usually last between 9 and 48 months, depending on the vocation and certificate level undertaken. An example of a school attendance and work hours would be to attend school three to four days a week, depending on the school study program, and attend at least one day per week at work.
What are the benefits of a School based Traineeship/Apprenticeship?
- Recruit keen young staff before they graduate from high school.
- Employ and train a young person part-time in your business.
- Meet the current and future skill needs of your business.
- Give a young person realistic exposure to your industry.

The VCE program is a set of semester length units undertaken over a minimum period of two years. At Greater Shepparton Secondary College, our VCE program is tailored to our students and enables them to access the most opportunities through our wide range of subject offerings at Year 11 and 12.
This program is designed for students to meet their needs and pursue their goals within the rules laid down by the Victorian Curriculum and Assessment Authority (VCAA). In order for students to successfully complete their VCE, they must satisfactorily complete a minimum of 16 units over two years including:
- 3 units of English (including unit 3 and 4);
- 3 other unit 3/4 sequences (6 units).
The 16 units may include an unlimited number of units of Vocational Education and Training (VET).
Completing the VCE can give you an ATAR score, offering a direct pathway to university.
The VCE can take students in many different directions after school and is a great choice for students who prefer learning in a classroom environment and know they might want to go to university right after school.
Below are listed the wide and varied range of subjects that are offered to students of GSSC in order to best support their interests, needs and goals.
