Year 11 & 12

Our senior students have access to education and training pathways best suited to their needs and to equip them as lifelong learners.

These pathways include the Victorian Certificate of Education (VCE), the VCE Vocational Major (VCE-VM) Certificate and Vocational Education and Training (VET) programs.

The VCE will normally be completed over a minimum of two years and our students enjoy a wide choice of subjects, including English, Mathematics, Science, Humanities, Health, Physical Education, Technology and the Arts. VCE students can pursue vocational, or VET studies, as part of their program.

VET subjects are an essential part of a VCE-VM program and provide Year 11 and 12 students with pathways to further training, apprenticeships and employment.
