DSD's School Report/VCE

[briggsy's girl]

if the year 12 subjects have a pre-requisite of a pass in the year 11 subject, then no, she won't be able to proceed.

most subjects (well, when i did it) carried through from year 11 to year 12 (so unit 1-4 of same subject) and if you didn't pass units 1 and 2 you couldn't do 3 and 4

i know my bro ended up repeating year 11 cos he couldn't do his year 12 subjects after slacking off

yep but coz of less subjects in yr 12 she would have a choice to drop one of her yr 11 subject presumably the one shes doing the worst in
bad thing is that even if they do bad they can still pass as long as they hand in every bit of work and get a pass on everything and some teachers might say to her i'll pass u if u hand in all the work even if the work isnt passable not sure how it works at her school but thts how it worked at mine
i know in yr 12 its only 40% to pass anything in yr 11 all that matters is pass or fail thats all VCE schools

Thanks guys.

So I checked out the VCE info on the school's website and it basically says that you'll be de-enrolled if you miss too many classes and that you have to pass Units 1 and 2 before doing Units 3 and 4.

yeah our school was 95% attendance so 8 days off the whole year

I think this one said that if you have six unexplained absences in one subject over the year, then you're de-enrolled from that subject.

When school starts again, have a meeting with the Yr11 Co ordinator and check things out.

I'd request a meeting with the Year co-ordinator when the teachers return to school... Phone up when the reception have started again as there will be lots of people wanting times...
