Greek Community of Melbourne Schools celebrate exceptional VCE performance

·

The Greek Community of Melbourne (GCM) Schools have once again demonstrated outstanding academic excellence in the VCE Greek Language Exams.

Specifically, 54% of the students from the GCM Schools scored 35 or higher out of 50. Notably, 8 out of 42 students achieved a score of 40 or above (raw score), not including any scaling. Overall, 85% of the students at the GCM Schools secured scores of 30 out of 50 or higher.

A particular highlight is Savina Koumides, a third-generation Greek Australian student, who achieved an extraordinary near-perfect score of 49 out of 50. Also impressive is the GCM Schools’ overall average, which significantly surpasses the Victorian state average in both oral and written examinations.

The success of the GCM Schools extends beyond Modern Greek, with notable achievements in the Ancient Greek subject. All five students from the GCM Schools scored between 30 and 36 out of 50 (raw score).

“These results reflect our ongoing dedication to high-quality education and our commitment to preserving and promoting Greek language and culture,” Maria Bakalidou, Principal of the GCM Schools, said. “We are incredibly proud of our students’ achievements and their continued excellence in all pursuits.”

The Greek Community of Melbourne congratulated all students on their outstanding performance and wished them every success in their future endeavours.
