Mooted standards based test for VCE

VCE students to face minimum literacy, numeracy standards under proposed shake-up

Victorian students could face another test in order to finish secondary school, with the State Government considering introducing minimum standards for literacy and numeracy.

Education Minister James Merlino has asked the Victorian Curriculum and Assessment Authority (VCAA) to review the two-year program for students in years 11 and 12, known as VCE.

As with the NSW, SA and WA tests we predict that there would be a typewritten component to this assessment thus linking the skill of typing to the outcome of the test.
