Homework and Home study
Teachers expect students to complete homework regularly, whether it be specific tasks or reviewing the work completed during the day (Home study).
Students are expected to develop sound home study patterns in their junior school years to ensure successful use of time in VCE. Students should ensure they understand homework tasks.
All students receive items for home study during the end of year transition program. This work must be completed prior to the commencement of the next school year.
