Showing the 5 most recent of 8 published cohorts. Each cohort is shown separately with its own respondent count (n). Cohorts are not pooled or averaged: On Track’s coverage changed sharply after 2021, so a single figure across them would show a movement that did not happen.

On Track is a voluntary survey and its coverage varies widely between schools. A percentage from a small number of respondents carries a wide margin of error, so read every figure against the respondent count above it. Cohorts are never pooled: coverage changed sharply after 2021, and combining them would show a movement that did not happen.

VCAA records the programs a school enrolled students in. A program not listed here has no record for the reported year, which is not the same as the school not offering it.

Boundaries are compared between consecutive published years. A comparison is reported here when the area moves by more than 0.5 km², which is what decides every one on this site; a shift of more than 500 m in the zone’s centre would also count, catching a zone that trades territory with a neighbour without changing size. That threshold is this site’s, not the Department’s: Victoria publishes the boundaries but no record of what changed between them. A smaller difference is left unreported because the source re-digitises boundaries between releases, but some real adjustments are smaller than this too.
