Year 12
It has been a very busy time for all Year 12 students as they start deciding on their future and working towards achieving their career plans and goals. For all of the Year 12 students who have put in their preferences for University and TAFE for 2021 through VTAC, please see below all of the important dates regarding their ATAR and study score release date, as well as the dates of the VTAC offer rounds.
Once students have received their ATAR scores, they will still have the opportunity to make any last-minute changes to their VTAC preferences before first round offers are released. To support our Year 12 students as best as we can through this difficult year and with their transition into further education, there will be select staff working onsite at school from 9am – 3pm on Wednesday 30th December 2020 in order to provide support to students or to assist them with changes to their preferences.
ATAR and study score release date: Wednesday 30th December 2020 (7:00am).
For students to be able to access their ATAR and study scores as soon as they are released, they should have registered on VCE results and ATAR 2020: https://resultsandatar.vic.edu.au/results/applicants.htm
