I would like to congratulate all our 2020 Year 12 students on achieving outstanding Year 12 VCE and VCAL results after such an extraordinary and most challenging year. Some of the highlights of our Year 12 VCE achievements include:
- 11% of our Year 12 students achieved ATARs over 90, and 13% over 80, thus close to a quarter scoring over 80
- 7.7% of study scores were in the 40s,
- with a median study score of 30 (we were only 6 study scores away from a median of 31).
Congratulations to our three top VCE students who were in the top 1% & 2% of the state of Victoria:
- David Le achieved a perfect ATAR score of 99.95 and was awarded College Dux for 2020. David is only one of 38 students across Victoria to score a perfect ATAR score – an absolutely incredible achievement!

In addition, congratulations to all our Year 12 VCAL students for completing all course requirements and receiving offers to complete diplomas, traineeships and apprenticeships.
This is a truly outstanding set of results and a credit to all staff and students who have worked so hard to achieve so much, not only last year but over the course of the six year journey for these students.
While we celebrate individual student success stories, it is important to remind everyone that your final ATAR score does not define you as a person. In the end it is a rank for tertiary admission. It won’t necessarily determine where you will go in the future or how happy you will be. All students should feel proud of their efforts and be satisfied that they have given their personal best.
