Year 10 Course Structure

The curriculum at Year 10 is designed to cater for the requirements of the new Victorian Curriculum as well as allow for student choice across all domains and as such each student’s program will consist of a combination of compulsory, core and elective units. 

Compulsory Units 

Compulsory units are studies which must be included in each Year 10 program and whose course content is common to all students at Year 10. At MSJ the compulsory units are Religious Education. 

Core Units 

Core units are those studies which must be included in each Year 10 program to fulfil the requirements of the Victorian Curriculum but still allows for some choice within the studies. At MSJ the core units are those chosen from the English, Mathematics, Science, Health & Physical Education and The Humanities (History) domains. 

Elective Units 

Elective units are those studies which may be included in each Year 10 program and can be chosen from any domain. There are no minimum requirements but students are encouraged to keep their choices broad.
