Victorian Pathways Certificate (VPC)
Montague School specialises in teaching the Victorian Pathways Certificate (VPC). The VPC is an inclusive Year 11 and 12 standards-based certificate that meets the needs of a smaller number of students who are not able or ready to complete the VCE (including the VCE Vocational Major).
The Victorian Pathways Certificate (VPC) replaces the Victorian Certificate of Applied Learning (VCAL). The VPC is designed to develop and extend pathways for young people, while providing flexibility for different cohorts. The VPC is suitable for students whose previous schooling experience may have been disrupted for a variety of reasons, including students with additional needs, students who have missed significant periods of learning and vulnerable students at risk of disengaging from their education. Students will gain the skills, knowledge, values and capabilities to make informed choices about pathways into a senior secondary qualification, entry level Vocational Education and Training (VET) courses or employment.
The curriculum accommodates student aspirations and future employment goals. VPC learning programs connect students to industry experiences and active participation in the community.
