  7. VCE at Year 10 – building a base vs. fast tracking Organisational Considerations: Class sizes Specialist room availability Teacher availability Timetable – maximising all student choices

  8. Individual Student considerations Electives give opportunities to build: • a base of knowledge and skills; • confidence; • interests and self awareness • options and career plans; VCE Unit 1&2/VET • offers a taste of VCE/VET • engages students who can be challenged • allows students to complete 6 x 3/4units • allows students to apply for a University extension in Year 12 Year 10 Electives aim to develop skills and knowledge in preparation for VCE Studying a VCE subject in Year 10 has as many disadvantages as advantages

  9. What to consider At school: in addition to structural constraints we consider: • Attendance • Work habits - excellent • Results – B+ average • Overall programme At home: in addition to what has been discussed consider: • Ability to manage the workload/pressures • Confidence • What does the student enjoy studying Keep your eye on the end game - And make choices that have long term benefits

  10. Process • Letters of invitation to apply will be given to students within the next 2 weeks; • If students accept the invitation they need to nominate subject/s of interest; • VCE ‘Lines’ of subjects will be organised based on Year 11 and 12 choices – implications for Year 10 choices; • Student will receive confirmation;
