Approximately how many people do Chinese SL each year?

[iheartu]

my teacher told me that ~800 students did chinese SL this yr and ~700 last year. So im guessing round bout 700-800.

Look at the assessor's reports, it usually has it somewhere near the top.

Is that in your school or all of Victoria?

[monokekie]

that should be a statewide statistic

[boysenberry]

So, not many schools offer Chinese SL? Could this be a possible form of discrimination?

[monokekie]

Its upon the school's decision of whether to select Chinese SL as an offered subject, normally basing on the number of students undertaking the subject and the availability of the teacher for the subject. There are language schools such as VSL that could also offer the course if its not available via your daytime school. Basically, as long as your school allows you to undertake a VCE subject during your school year, you can do Chinese SL through various pathways that are available to you.

In my 1/2 class at day school this year there were only 8 people.

Our school only offers Italian (they used to offer Japanese SL but they stopped) and even then they're planning on stopping Italian in a few years. It's not really a discrimination thing, and as already mentioned there are a lot of language schools (VSL aka worst place in existence) since most students would learn the language from a younger age like in primary school.

Wow only? To be honest...I was expecting way more.

yea 700 to 800 sounds about right when you look at the number of people who get above 40 each year.

This year was 67, so thats the top (approx.) 9% of the total enrolment.
