The Islamic College of Melbourne provides students with two study options in their senior years of schooling, Year 11 & 12. These programs of study are the Victorian Certificate of Education (VCE) incorporating VET or the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme.
For full information on both courses please refer to the corresponding handbook, found in the Resources section of this page. Year 9 students are expected to make a preliminary choice on which pathway they will be pursuing mid-way through Term 3.
Students in Year 10 at ICOM participate in a three-year senior program. This curriculum program has been designed to meet the diverse educational needs of our students and to provide each student with a stimulating and valuable learning experience.
All students will undertake work placement as part of the Year 10 Careers Program. This is designed to help students explore career options and promote job-seeking skills. Students are required to find their own work placement. Work placement is for one week and takes place during a designated week in the Term 2 holiday break.
All students will also participate in a Community and Service Program under the CAS (Creativity, Activity and Service Certificate). Students are required to be involved in activities both as individuals and as part of a team that take place in local, national and international contexts. CAS enables students to enhance their personal and interpersonal development as well as their social and civic development through experiential learning. CAS supports students in achieving a counterbalance to the academic challenge of the rest of their study program. All students will receive a CAS Certificate from the International Baccalaureate Organisation (IBO) at the end of Year 12.
