Overview

Subschools

The central teaching and learning programs within the DECV are arranged into three subschools.

YEARS 11-12  

Students can study full time or part time for the Victorian Certificate of Education (VCE) and the Victorian Certificale of Applied Learning (VCAL).

Single subjects at the VCE level may be available for students in regular schools who cannot access the particular subject.

YEARS 7-10  

Years 7 & 8 students follow a core curriculum designed to support and extend their creativity, literacy and numeracy. In Years 9 and 10 there are core subjects plus a comprehensive elective program.

Every student is allocated a pastoral care teacher who provides a caring and supportive environment in which the student can achieve success.

YEARS P-6  

Many of the P-4 courses have been developed using an integrated curriculum approach. It capitalises on children's experiences, assisting them to a greater understanding of the world.

The Years 5 and 6 English Across the Curriculum courses also use an integrated curriculum approach. Students develop and demonstrate their understanding of the topics through reading, writing, speaking and listening activities. Aspects of Health and Physical Education, Studies of Society, Information and Learning Technologies and other Key Learning Areas are incorporated in the units where appropriate.
