The delivery of VCE Offshore requires input and support from both partner schools and from the VCAA.

Who does what?

Below is an outline of the typical division of responsibility in some of the most important areas of program delivery:

• Classroom delivery is the responsibility of the overseas partner school, with the help of ongoing support from the Victorian partner school.
• Classroom teachers are employed by the overseas school. Teachers may be recruited from within the overseas school or externally and must meet standards stipulated by the VCAA.
• The Victorian school must ensure adequate professional development and ongoing support for teachers at the overseas school. In the case of the VCE, Victorian teachers must be assigned as mentors to the offshore subject teachers.
• Design and oversight of a Year 10 Pre-VCE Preparatory Program (where applicable) is the responsibility of the Victorian partner school.
• Curriculum and assessment structure is provided by the VCAA. Lesson planning and in-year assessments are usually provided by the Victorian partner school.
• Maintenance of student records is a responsibility shared between both partner schools and the VCAA. Schools are expected to maintain information on all students, including tracking student pathways following VCE graduation.
