Notice to Schools 71 –
21 June 2024

Last day for VCE Unit 3 School-assessed Task scores and withdrawal from VCE, including VCE VM Unit 4, and scored VCE VET Unit 3 and 4 units of competency

Principals/Directors, VCE, VCE VM and VPC coordinators, VASS administrators and teachers of these studies

Schools are reminded that Monday 22 July is:

  • the date VCE Unit 3 School-assessed Task (SAT) scores are due. The 2024 scored assessment schedule has a list of VCE studies that require School-assessed Task scores
  • the last day to withdraw students from VCE, including VCE VM Unit 4 and scored VCE VET Unit 3 and 4 units of competency.

After this date VASS will not allow SAT scores to be entered for the following specific criterion scores:

  • Algorithmics (HESS), Criteria 1–4
  • Applied Computing: Data Analytics, Criteria 1-5
  • Applied Computing: Software Development, Criteria 1-5
  • Art Creative Practice, Criteria 1-6
  • Art Making and Exhibiting, Criteria 1-5
  • Media, Criteria 1-4
  • Product Design and Technology, Criteria 1-3
  • Systems Engineering, Criteria 1-3
  • Visual Communication, Criteria 1-4.

VCE withdrawals

Withdrawals will only be supported on compassionate grounds where an application has been made by the school and approved by the VCAA.

Withdrawing a student from a VCE or VCE VM Unit 4 study may affect their eligibility to complete their VCE or VCE VM.

Schools should run student eligibility reports before and after making any changes to a student’s program to ensure that students intending to complete a senior secondary certificate in 2024 will be able to meet the eligibility requirements.

Schools are advised to be mindful when withdrawing students from VCE Unit 4 studies, as a late fee may apply if a student is incorrectly withdrawn and needs to be reinstated in the Unit 4 study.

Action

Principals/Directors should:

  • ensure coordinators and VASS administrators enter the required scores in VASS by the due date
  • ensure VCE Unit 4 or VCE VET scored Unit 3-4 units of competency withdrawals are actioned on VASS by the due date.

Critical dates
