The menu offers the other orders; this page's HTML lists the default. Every figure here is in subjects/english-language.json, and questions.json says what to ask a reader first.

How to read this
A VCE study score is scaled so that the state mean in each study is 30; a score of 40 or above puts a student in roughly the top 9% of the state in that study. VCAA publishes the name and school of every student who scores 40 or more and consents to publication; these tables count those published scores.
- Counts are study scores of 40 or above published by VCAA for 2020-2025, pooled. Only students who consented to publication appear, so every school count is a lower bound: across the years VCAA states the withheld number (2021, 2023, 2024, 2025), 13% of all scores of 40 or above were withheld, and the share differs from school to school. State totals include the withheld scores.
- VCAA does not publish how many students each school enters in a study, so there is no per-subject pass rate. per_100_vce_students divides the pooled count by the school's VCE cohort over the same years, which favours a school where many students take the subject. strength_ratio is the count divided by what the school's overall count of scores of 40 or above would predict given the subject's share statewide: above 1 the subject is a relative strength of the school; it is withheld below 3 scores, observed or expected.
- A school's campuses are merged. Only government schools are ranked; other_sectors lists the Catholic, independent and other providers on the roll for this study by name and count, with no page on this site. Whether a school offers the study comes from VCAA's School Studies Search at the time of the build.
- Selective-entry schools and the Victorian School of Languages, which teaches a language to students enrolled anywhere, lead most raw counts.
- premiers_awards counts the Premier's VCE Study Awards the school's students won in the study, 2020-2025, from the honour roll on vic.gov.au (earlier years from the Internet Archive's copies of that page). An award needs a study score of 46 or above and goes to the best few students in the study statewide, so it marks the very top of the subject; a handful are given in each study a year. Student names are not published here.

Deep Almanac is a secondary source and this page is provided for general information and reference. It is not financial, investment, legal, valuation, educational or other professional advice, and it is not a substitute for checking the original source. Measures are the Department of Education's own published figures, taken from each school's most recent Annual Report, so a school's numbers are only as current as its last report; the Department suppresses a value when a cohort is too small to publish, and a single year can move sharply at a small school.
