Year 9/10 Electives

Electives are one Semester in length. Electives in 2025 will all have 8 periods (lessons) per cycle, with the exception of Year 10 Unit 1/2 VCE Subjects, which will have 9 periods per cycle.

In Year 9 and 10, all students will undertake one Semester of core History studies with the elective blocks.

VCE electives may only be chosen by students who will be in Year 10. VCE subjects count as 2 electives (1 per semester) as they take place over a full year.

Students are required to undertake at least one elective from each of the Creativity, Enterprise, and Global Citizenship strands across the two years.

The viability of any subject will be determined by the number of students choosing it. Electives will be blocked into the timetable on the basis of student choice. Students will be notified about which confirmed electives they will be studying as soon as possible. Once students are allocated to elective classes that they have selected as one of their choices or as a reserve, they will not be able to move into another elective.
