Guided Choice

Students will study four elective subjects in Year 10. Three of these choices are Guided, and the last is Free choice.   

The Guided choices must come from The Arts, The Technologies, and Health & Physical Education – one subject per area. 

The Free choice subject will come from The Arts OR The Technologies OR Health & Physical Education OR Humanities OR Science. 

All electives are 10 periods a fortnight. 

Each subject has literacy and numeracy requirements, and there is theory to complete. This theory is linked to the type of elective. 

The two types of electives are: 

Theory and practical application:  

• Theoretical aspects that prepare the student for subjects in a VCE General Pathway. 
• While the subject has practical elements, this learning is dependent on the theory being completed.  
• This subject also suits as preparation for VCE VET. 

Applied practical learning:  

• More practical based. 
• Theory linked to note taking, planning/ organising, designing or communicating quick ideas. 
• Build practical skills and knowledge – especially where precise practical skills are needed in VCE VET.  

The choices in each area are below:
