VCE Philosophy

2025 VCE Study Design

The VCAA has released the 2025 Study Design, available here. 

New Study Design Support

In Term 4, VAPS dedicated 2 days to unpacking and collectively resourcing for the new study design. These resources are being uploaded (or have already been uploaded) to our website. The content is behind a paywall accessible via a VAPS membership.  You can find:

• Vocabulary Support for each Text
• Concept Games for many of the key concepts in the Study Design
• Sample Planners
• Lists with Contemporary Applications and Case Studies

2025 Set Text PDF

The set texts for the new study design have been released. Tyson Foreman has collated them all and has been very generous with allowing VAPS to distribute. 

It is available permanently via the member resources page on the VAPS website (and will be there fore the next 4 years for future reference).

It is also available here for convenience now.
