Melbourne High School pushes for compulsory year 11 humanities subjects
29th July 2024
Geography Victoria is totally supportive of the proposal by the Melbourne High School principal for all Year 11 students to study a Humanities subject. A number of resources showcase how the study of a humanities subject provides students with lifelong skills and indeed puts them at an advantage in whatever field of employment they chose to pursue. Specifically targeted to students are the Careers in Humanities resources - a series of posters developed by a number of Victorian professional teaching associations in 2022-23 which highlight the key skills that students develop when they study humanities and the employment opportunities that are available. The key areas of History and Classical Studies, Philosophy, Civics and Citizenship, Politics and Sociology and Geography are explored in a detailed prezi.
