VCE Review and Implementation


Information sessions: School-assessed Tasks


The marking scale for School-assessed Tasks has been revised. In 2014, the
current five-point scale will be replaced with a 10-point scale. As a
consequence, the assessment criteria for the School-assessed Tasks in each
study have been amended. The assessment criteria will be applied using a
rubric in the form of a table.

Information sessions to advise teachers of the change to the School-assessed
Task assessment scale will be held in November and December. These sessions
are designed to provide teachers with a clear understanding of how to apply
the assessment criteria and descriptors to the new 10-point scale. These
sessions will also include additional study specific information. Register
