VCE Results 2009

Westbourne's Class of 2009 achieved a 100% pass rate in the Victorian Certificate of Education (VCE), a feat which every Westbourne Year 12 class has achieved since the VCE was introduced in 1991.

 Highlights from the 2009 VCE results were:

• All students satisfied the requirements for the award of the VCE
• 5 (4%) students received an ENTER above 99
• 30 students (22%) received an ENTER above 90
• The School’s median ENTER was 80.55 - the highest yet achieved by a Year 12 VCE class at Westbourne.
• 53% of all year 12 students achieved an ENTER above 80, placing them in the top 20% of students across the State

Dux of the School was Patrick Molloy who scored an ENTER of 99.9 which means that he was in the top 0.1% of the top 1% of the approximately 50,000 Victorian students who sat for the VCE this year.

VCE Results 2008

Westbourne students have again achieved a 100% pass rate for the VCE, a feat they have achieved every year since the VCE was introduced in 1991. In 2008 Westbourne had 150 students in Year 12 which is our largest VCE class ever. Of these students:

• All satisfied the requirements for the award of the VCE
• 19 received an ENTER above 95
• 43 received an ENTER above 90
• The median ENTER score was 80, (which means that over half of all Westbourne students received an ENTER of 80 or above).

As well as being our largest VCE class ever this is the largest number of ENTER scores over 90 we have ever achieved and the second largest number of ENTER scores above 95 (there were 24 in 2003).

As is always the case the top academic results were obtained by students who were also heavily involved in school life; all three School Captains obtained an ENTER over 95. This reinforces the message that academic success is helped rather than hindered by a full involvement in the co-curricular program of the School.

VCE Results 2007

In 2007, Westbourne students have achieved an average ENTER of over 80. This is only the second time of such a splendid result, and it matches 2006. Results of VCE exams indicate a very solid year’s work; 2 students have an ENTER over 99, 8 students have 95 or more and 67 students have scored 80 or above. In 2007, all 133 Year 12 students have satisfied the requirements for their VCE, maintaining our long tradition of 100% pass rate.

In terms of Study Scores, the highest possible result is 50. In 2007, 10 students scored between 45 and 50, and 40 students between 40 and 44.

The Median Score of all our students is over 80, which means that 50% of our students are placed in the top 20% of all Victorian candidates.

The two students who obtained an ENTER over 99 are placed in the top 1% of all Victorian students.
