2023 VCE, VCE VM, VCE VET, HES, VPC, VCAL and Literacy and Numeracy statistical information

The VCAA publishes extensive enrolment and assessment outcome information to inform the public. The VCAA welcomes and encourages the use of this information by the public with the goal of improved outcomes for students in Victoria.

At the same time, VCAA wishes to ensure the information is used appropriately, to avoid making the wrong conclusions. For instance, results for one year should not be used in any way to predict results for students in subsequent years. Each year’s results, both for school based and external (Examinations) assessments, will vary due to different assessments being used and different populations of students participating in the assessment.

Statistical information about student performance in 2023 includes information about VCE (including the VCE VM), VCAL, Vocational Education and Training (VET), VPC and Victorian Literacy and Numeracy Standards.
