Senior Secondary Curriculum
VCE VM
The minimum VCE VM requirement is satisfactory completion of 16 units that must include:
• 3 VCE VM Literacy units or units from other studies in the English group (including a Unit 3 – 4 sequence)
•
2 VCE VM Numeracy or VCE Mathematics units
•
2 VCE VM Work Related Skills units
•
2 VCE VM Personal Development Skills units
• 2 VET credits at Certificate II level or above (students may accrue 2 units of credit following the completion of UoCs to the total of 180 nominal hours drawn from multiple VET qualifications).
• In addition to their Unit 3 – 4 sequence from the English group, students must complete a minimum of 3 other Unit 3 – 4 sequences as part of their program.
Please Note: Students will receive the appellation of ‘ Vocational Major ’ on their VCE certificates upon satisfactorily completing the VCE VM program. A VCE VM student will be awarded the VCE without the VM appellation if they meet the minimum requirements for satisfactory VCE completion, but not the minimum requirements for the satisfactory completion of the VM appellation.
Schools are well placed to advise parents or carers (and students in individual cases) where students may benefit from this option. However, when students, with support from parents or carers decide to complete a unit without a study score, it is important that schools communicate to all parties the greater number of pathways available when scored assessment is completed.
