Showing the 5 most recent of 6 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.

Subjects and programs

  • VCE Vocational Major

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.

Enrolment zone

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.
