A path to re-engagement: evaluating the first year of a Community VCAL education program for young people

The Brotherhood of St Laurence’s 2010 Community VCAL (CVCAL) program was tailored for young people aged 15 to 18 who had experienced barriers to education, often leading to expulsion or ‘exiting’ from mainstream schools. Located in Frankston, the program delivered the Victorian Certificate of Applied Learning [VCAL] - a Years 11-12 certificate course which combines classroom tuition with vocational training and work placements - in a community setting rather than a school. The evaluation of its inaugural year found that, notwithstanding some challenges, the 2010 BSL-CVCAL program made a significant difference to the lives of most of its students.

Refocusing vocational training in Victoria

This policy statement from the Victorian state government outlines how it will work towards better targeting government support for vocational education and training (VET) through reform to minimise the risk of ineffective and inefficient operation of the market. These reforms will underpin a VET sector characterised by sustainability, high quality and direct industry engagement. The statement covers the following areas: (1) sustainability of VET; (2) quality of training through higher expectations of training providers, stronger monitoring and compliance checks, and user choice; (3) industry driven VET through a new model for industry engagement that will enable a stronger, direct industry voice in the development of VET, and additional support for critical and niche skill needs; (4) building trade pathways; and (5) stronger partnerships with higher education providers.

The On Track survey 2014: the destinations of school leavers in Victoria: statewide report

On Track is an annual survey run by the Victorian Government to monitor destination outcomes of school leavers six months after they exit school. This report provides insights into the post-school destinations of Victorian students who exited school in 2013 and participated in the 2014 On Track survey (conducted in May-June 2014). In 2013, there were 54,371 Year 12 or equivalent completers in Victoria. Of these, 32,183 (59.2 per cent) participated in the 2014 On Track survey. Regardless of the education level they attain, most students leaving school choose to either continue their education or training, or enter the workforce. The desire to start working and earning money was the main reason why school leavers did not continue their education or training. In 2014, a record 77.4 per cent of all Year 12 (or equivalent) completers and over half (53.8 per cent) of early leavers, chose to further their education. For both cohorts, this was an increase from the previous year.
