Senior Student Guide
Graduation Process
Students Graduate at Croydon Community School with the ‘International Big Picture Learner Credential’ (IBPLC) and VCE VM.
The International Big Picture Learning Credential (IBPLC) is a transformative, student-centered alternative to traditional high school certification. Developed in Australia in collaboration with the University of Melbourne, the IBPLC is designed to authentically assess students’ real-world learning, personal growth, and academic competencies. Instead of ranking students or relying on standardised exams, the IBPLC evaluates learners across six learning goals:
– Knowing How to Learn
– Empirical Reasoning
– Quantitative Reasoning
– Social Reasoning
– Communication
– Personal Qualities
Student work is curated into a digital Learner Profile that includes a portfolio of work, a personal video statement, and an advisor’s narrative, showcasing their achievements and aspirations. This credential is currently accepted by over many Australian universities as a rigorous non-ATAR pathway to tertiary education.
This process also gives students the opportunity to obtain the VCE VM.
