Victorian Certificate of Education

Years 11 and 12 Senior School Waurn Ponds

The Victorian Certificate of Education (VCE) provides students with a broad range of studies in the Arts, Humanities, Mathematics, Science and Technology fields.  Students in Year 11 are also able to undertake a range of Unit 3 & 4 studies (Year 12 subjects) in their course program. 

Our key focus is to deliver a quality VCE program committed to academic excellence.  At present, we offer 31 VCE studies.  Students will have the opportunity to design individual course programs to establish a range of career pathways.

In the midst of these years of academic rigour in order to achieve the best possible VCE results, many students accept positions of leadership, both in House competitions and community service. Their pride, enthusiasm and encouragement to others have indeed been a powerful and positive example to the Senior School community.
