YEAR 10 CORE SUBJECTS
YEAR 10 ENGLISH Year 10 English serves as a bridge to VCE, equipping students with advanced skills in literary analysis, writing, and communication. Depending on their academic pathway, students engage with complex texts, including novels, films, and contemporary issues-based articles. Those preparing for VCE English analyse narrative techniques, structures, and themes to develop sophisticated written responses. Students focusing on practical literacy skills explore texts for self-expression, public debate, and real-world applications. Assessment modes vary, including essays, oral presentations, and creative projects. By refining their planning, proofreading, and editing skills, students enhance their ability to articulate complex ideas clearly and persuasively. The curriculum fosters independence, critical thinking, and adaptability—essential skills for future academic and professional endeavours.
