The 2024 GAT will be held on Tuesday 18 June. The GAT will measure literacy and numeracy skills, as well as continuing to support existing purposes including quality assurance for VCE assessments. The new standards will indicate whether students have demonstrated the literacy and numeracy skills typically expected of someone completing their secondary schooling – giving another indication of their readiness to move onto further education, training or employment.
As in all previous years, no special study will be required for the GAT. The GAT will be split into two sections – Sections A and B – to be conducted in separate sessions on the same day:
All students enrolled in one or more VCE or scored VCE VET Unit 3–4 sequence are expected to sit both Sections A and B of the GAT. Senior VCE VM students are expected to sit Section A of the GAT. Students who complete Section A will receive a statement indicating if they have met the literacy and numeracy standards.
Sample questions and tasks indicative of questions in Section A of the GAT are now available on the VCAA website, at
