2024 VCE Performance and Languages oral examination and Extended Investigation oral presentation schedule
Principals/Directors, VCE coordinators and VCE performing arts studies, VCE Languages and VCE Extended Investigation teachers
Schools must advise (via the
survey) of significant school-based events and/or religious observation events that require student attendance for all or a significant part of a day within the assessment period (Monday 7 October to Monday 28 October, and Saturday 2 to Sunday 3 November 2024).
This information is used to timetable VCE Unit 3-4 performance examinations, Languages oral examinations and Extended Investigation oral presentations.
Please
complete the survey by Thursday 2 May.
Significant school-based events
These may include final year assemblies or graduation ceremonies. Schools can nominate one school-based event day only as unavailable for timetabling. Students may be timetabled either side of the nominated day.
Religious observation events
These include days where students, due to religious holidays, beliefs and practices, are not able to attend an examination. Schools can nominate more than one day in this category, if applicable.
The VCAA will assume student availability during the assessment period is unrestricted, unless advised. Student rescheduling for examinations will not be possible if we do not receive advice by Thursday 2 May.
Action
