VCE Persian study guide

VCE Persian is a Victorian Certificate of Education language study assessed through two external examinations, each weighted at 50 per cent of the study score: an oral examination and a written examination. It suits students who already have substantial background in Persian and wish to have that competence formally recognised within the VCE, typically building literacy, analytical reading and sustained writing in Persian alongside the oral skills assessed separately. The written examination draws on listening, reading and writing tasks supported by recorded audio material, and the oral examination is assessed against published criteria and descriptors. Preparation should be organised around the official materials published by the Victorian Curriculum and Assessment Authority rather than around any single textbook: the CCAFL examination format generic sample examination (Version 3, June 2025), the oral and written examination specifications (both Version 2, March 2025), the assessment criteria and descriptors for each examination, the sample texts from November 2024, and the 2026 Languages oral examination advice (Version 2, February 2026). Topics on this exam: Oral examination and Written examination. The VCE Persian study guide has 2 sections and about 673 words.
