ATAR Results 2020

The College is delighted to congratulate all our Year Twelve students on their VCE results. This cohort completed their VCE under extraordinary circumstances and they demonstrated incredible resilience and determination. We proudly acknowledge their efforts and achievements through this year.

We would like to congratulate the Cathedral College Dux for 2020, Bethany James who achieved an ATAR of 93.35. Bethany has applied to study a Bachelor of Science at the University of Melbourne and has been accepted to reside on campus at Newman College. Jan Barnard also excelled with an ATAR of 92.45 and has applied to study a Bachelor of Engineering at Monash University. Congratulations also to Aspen Thomas who achieved an ATAR of 90. Aspen has applied to study a Bachelor of Criminology/Law at Deakin University.

The Class of 2020 achieved 100% satisfactory completion for their VCE studies, with over a quarter of our students recording an ATAR of over 80. We would like to recognise those who attained the twelve study scores of 40 or above, which places those students in the top 8% of the state. These are wonderful results. We extend congratulations and gratitude to our dedicated and committed staff, not only those who teach the VCE, but also those who have supported, encouraged and inspired our young people throughout their schooling. We would also like to acknowledge the support our students and staff received from home this year. To our parents and guardians, thank you for trusting us to work with such an outstanding group of young people.

Whilst some may measure VCE success solely by ATAR scores, this does not tell the whole story of each individuals journey. We proudly celebrate each of our students successes. To those who are commencing apprenticeships, undertaking further study through TAFE or University studies, have secured ongoing employment, or will take a GAP year, we acknowledge your success also. This diversity of pathways reflects the value Cathedral College Wangaratta places on providing a holistic education that focuses on the individual. A Cathedral education is about preparing students for life, not only to be inquisitive learners with a well-rounded education, but also to be equipped with the skills required to navigate the various career choices and pathways that lay before them.

Our students know that there is equal and immeasurable success in being a valued contributor to society, and we are proud of each and every one of them. We are certain that all our students leave us with the self-efficacy, the resolve, the curiosity, and the personal capacity to succeed in the world beyond Cathedral College Wangaratta.
