GENERAL ACHIEVEMENT TEST

On Wednesday 10 June, all VCE students completing a Unit 3 & 4 subject in 2015 will complete the General Achievement Test (GAT).

 

GAT results play an important role in checking that School-Assessed Tasks, School-Assessed Coursework and Examinations have been accurately assessed.  They may also be used if a student requires a Derived Exam Score due to illness, accident or personal hardship. 

VCE EXAMS

All VCE students will be sitting Unit 1 and Unit 3 exams from 5 June to 12 June. 

 

Whilst these exams are not formal VCAA exams, they are an essential way that students can assess their level of understanding of the Key Knowledge taught in each of their subject areas.

 

Students will not be required at school for formal classes when their exams are not running.
