Year 10 into 11 Course Selection Information for 2023
As students begin making decisions about their senior secondary years, they receive a great deal of support, coaching and counselling about future career opportunities and pathways to get there. Kardinia offers students the opportunity to study VCE, VET or the IB Diploma. Year 10 students need to decide which senior program to study, before selecting subjects that best suit their skills, interests and future ambitions.
Post-graduate Pathway Considerations
The two videos below provide students and parents with a range of considerations that must be factored in to choosing a Year 11 and 12 course. Indeed, a primary consideration should be to the possible career path a student may wish to pursue after secondary school. The career path is likely to have associated post-secondary study requirements at University or TAFE. A key step for students is to investigate possible post-secondary studies and ensure that the subjects taken in Years 11 and 12 support these pathways.
