The Pathways to Success
At Melton Christian College, we view success as students entering their chosen field when they leave the College. It is important for parents and students to understand that there are many pathways to achieving success.
There are two secondary schooling certificates in Victoria to help students achieve their goals: the Victorian Certificate of Education (VCE) and the Victorian Certificate of Education with a Vocational Major (VCE VM). Melton Christian College offers both of these certificates onsite.
We have strong VCE and VCE VM programs that offer a wide variety of subject areas.
Our program includes a number of practical, hands-on classes that prepare students for vocational careers. VET (Vocational Education and Training) programs are run in conjunction with the Western Edge VET cluster. Offsite VET courses have an additional charge. MCC offers VET studies onsite at the College and these onsite VETs have no additional fee, so the College encourages students to select these onsite, no-cost VET courses.
VCE
At MCC, there are two ways of completing the standard VCE course, they are: VCE Scored and VCE Certificate only.
VCE VM
Students who do the VCE VM are likely to be interested in going on to training at TAFE, starting an apprenticeship, or getting a job after completing school.

Senior Years
The senior years of secondary schooling are a time of consolidating learning. Through these years, students connect all the various studies that have led to this point in their education. Most importantly, senior schooling is a continuation of each students’ search to identify their God-given gifts.
Christian schooling ensures that every person has a specific, constructive, and wonderful contribution to make in their society. We like to call is their “vocation” or “calling”. As a Christian College, it is appropriate that teachers assist students in pursuing their own personal bests. Through that pursuit of excellence, students are able to discover ways the Lord can use them to positively impact their world.
Whether in VCE or VCE VM, our senior students and their teachers partner together to get the highest possible results so that the post-secondary options are maximized. Highest possible results mean that doors open to enable a student optimally to pursue their calling.
