VCE News & Date

Tip of the week - To increase productivity and reduce stress in VCE.

• Say it and think it out loud.

Saying out loud what you are learning is proven to help you better retain information. Try speaking to someone at home about what you have learnt that day.

General Achievement Test

• All students who study a Unit 3/4 sequence (Yr12 or Scored 2nd Yr VET subject) are required to sit the General Achievement Test (GAT) on Tuesday June 16.
• This test provides students with an opportunity to meet the Victorian Literacy and Numeracy standards which they may need for entrance into future education and training, and it plays an important role in quality assurance of VCE assessments for scored VCE students.
• The GAT will be held in the school library and learning centres.
• Students require a dictionary, scientific calculator, pen and grey lead pencil to complete this test.
• It is important to note this is a VCAA exam and cannot be re-scheduled for family holidays or other commitments. 
• There will be no regular classes on this day. It is a student free day for reporting writing for all students not sitting the GAT.
• To ensure they are prepared students will be given all required information for the test in an assembly during the first week of June.
