Year 10 Subjects

To ensure that Year 10 students are covering all required content while also having a chance to choose subjects of personal interest from amongst a range of subject options from different subject areas, we have provided the following options.

Year 10s will study six units each semester. This is twelve units over the course of the year. To ensure that Year 10 students study a broad curriculum, meeting the requirements of the Victorian Curriculum, the following subjects are compulsory (core studies):

Mathematics         students must study two units of Mathematics for the whole year (one unit per semester)

English                  students must study two units of English for the whole year (one unit per semester)

Science                  students must study at least one unit of Science (at least one semester)

Humanities           students must study at least one unit of Core Humanities (at least one semester)

Health and PE      students must study at least one unit of a Health subject

Students must also select five other electives. These may be selected from any of the learning areas and may include one VCE or VET Study (Units 1 and 2).

Students are strongly urged to consider continuing with their Language (French or Indonesian) into Year 10 and are encouraged to discuss this with their current Language Teacher.

To support students to continue with their Languages studies, they may have free choice of their electives.

Note: {YL} = Year Long subjects which must be undertaken in both semesters if selected

          {1} = Single Semester Subjects which may be undertaken in Semester One or Two

         {2} = Single Semester Subjects offered in Semester Two with a prerequisite Semester One Subject
