This guide outlines the curriculum and pathway options available to students as they transition into the final stage of their learning journey at John Paul College.  \nThe senior years are a time of increasing choice and personal responsibility. Our goal is to empower students to design a pathway that aligns with their strengths, interests and post-school aspirations, whether those include tertiary education, training or employment.  \nWe remain committed to explicit instruction as the foundation of our practice, consistent with the MACS Vision for Instruction. Our teachers focus on delivering structured, evidence-based learning that challenges students, builds confidence and supports achievement.  \nStudents at this stage are encouraged to reflect on their learning journey, engage meaningfully with their studies and take ownership of their goals. We offer a range of VCE, VCE Vocational Major (VCE VM), VET and Victorian Pathways Certificate (VPC) options that recognise the diverse talents and ambitions of our students.  \nThis is also a time for students to build the personal capabilities such as leadership, resilience and selfregulation that will prepare them for life beyond school. Through a supportive and inclusive learning environment, we aim to foster independence while maintaining a strong sense of connection to the John Paul College community.  \nWe look forward to walking alongside every student as they shape their future with confidence, purpose and integrity.  \nMr Michael O’Keeffe  \nDeputy Principal – Learning and Teaching  \nELEMENTS FOR LEARNING  \nElement  \nKnowledge  \nElement  \nCapabilities  \nElement  \nSelf  \n2026 Curriculum Guide  3  \nContacts  \nFor subject specific information, please contact the student’s relevant subject teacher.  \nFor wellbeing support, please contact the student’s Pastoral Group Teacher or Senior Wellbeing Leader.

Reflect on your experiences from Years 7–9, extracurricular activities, and life beyond school to help guide your decisions and build a meaningful learning pathway. We recommend that students keep in mind the following:  \n▪ Choose subjects that you enjoy. This helps you to remain motivated and to learn in the best way.  \n▪ At Years 11 and 12 choose subjects that are prerequisites for your chosen field of study or work. You are encouraged to see our Careers Advisor to help with this.  \nIS THERE SOMEONE I CAN GO TO FOR HELP?  \nIf you’re unsure about future pathways, choose abroad mix of subjects to keep your options open.
