Senior Secondary Curriculum
Redeeming modules – submitting further evidence for satisfactory completion If a teacher judges that work submitted by a student does not meet the required standard for satisfactory completion, they may consider other work the student has undertaken and submitted for the module. This work may include class work, homework, additional tasks or discussions with the student that demonstrate their achievement of the module.
The school may decide to delay the decision about satisfactory completion to allow a student to complete or submit further work.
Lost, stolen or damaged work
If a teacher or student has lost work or had work stolen or damaged, they must provide a written statement explaining the circumstances. The statement must be signed, dated and filed at the school. Schools must keep a record, however they are not required to report the loss, theft or damage to the VCAA. The principal shall base their decision on the student ’ s unit result on records kept and the teacher ’ s advice.
Rules for authentication of school based assessment
Students must observe and apply VCAA authentication rules. Students must sign an authentication record for work done outside class when they submit completed work. The VCAA authentication rules state that:
• a student must make sure that all unacknowledged work submitted is their own
• a student must acknowledge all resources used, including:
texts, websites and other source material
the name and status of any person who provided assistance and the type of assistance provided
