VCE exams underway
VCE exams across the district got underway early last week.
More than 45,000 students across the state sat their English exam last Monday week, kicking off a three-week exam period for the Class of 2024.
Minister for Education Ben Carroll congratulated all students completing their school studies.
“Last week’s English exam took place at over 560 examination centres across the state and this year 89,000 VCE students will complete at least one examination including written, oral presentation and performance exams,” Mr Carroll said.
VCE Vocational Major students are also now completing their final end of year assessments for 2024 as they prepare to complete their VCE studies.
The completion of 13 years of schooling is an enormous achievement and prepares our young people to take their next steps.
This may include further education, training, taking a gap year or entering the workforce.
“This year the largest examination centre is at Bendigo Senior Secondary College with 937 students and the smallest is at Balmoral K-12 Community College with three students,” Mr Carroll said.
The final exam will take place on Wednesday, November 20.
Students are due to receive their VCE results on Thursday, December 12.
