Year 11 VCE Expectations

It is expected that students undertaking Year 11 studies complete 1 hr of homework for EACH subject each night. This may mean that students can be doing up to 4-5 hours of homework a night. 

Expected that all students have their required equipment (laptops, textbooks, edrolo, calculators etc). We know this can be an expensive time so please if you are having any financial difficulties please contact Ms Corney.

Students should also limit part-time jobs to 10 hours a week.

Attendance requirements are 95% 

If your child is absent, please contact Andrea (the senior school attendance officer) and provide a reason for their absence.

REDEMPTION PROCESS

All students are required to hand in their coursework 48 hours prior to a SAC. If the student does not hand in their coursework by the due date, they may risk receiving a 0 for the SAC depending on the outcome of the review meeting with YLLs. 

Students will not be eligible for redemption if a reasonable attempt has not been made on coursework and not submitted by the due date. This will result in the student being issued with an N for the outcome. 

If a student scores below 50% on a SAC, and has made a reasonable attempt to meet the SAC requirements, the following steps will apply:

1. Redemption:

• Students are issued with a Failed Outcome Notice 
• Parents are notified (at least 3 days prior to redemption*). 
• Students seek assistance and clarification from subject teacher about areas for improvement
• Students sit a redemption SAC

S is given if the student is able to achieve 50% or above or N if student does not meet the 50% minimum. 

Year 11 Students – if N is received on their 1st attempt this could mean an N for the outcome and an N for the Unit.

EXTRA CLASSES

It has been a difficult time for the students in the past 2 years and the College has a number of extra study sessions organised to assist students. 

• English- Thursday 8:00am and Friday afterschool
• Maths / Science- Wednesday 3:00- 400pm

We encourage all students to attend these sessions for extra support.
