The vast majority of school staff will be working remotely, but there will be a small number of students and teachers at schools.

There are 4000 sim cards and over 6000 laptops and tablets ready.

“Every child that needs a laptop or tablet will receive one,” Education Minister James Merlino said.

The plan for VCE exams

Education Minister James Merlino also said Year 12 students will sit VCE exams this year, but it “will look different”.

The GAT test usually held in June will be moved to October or November.

School-Based Assessment Tasks (SACS) will be reduced.

“Our aim is we will move end of year exams to December,” Merlino said.

“We do have Plan B’s but the plan is to finish the aim and intention is to finish the year for Year 12 students this year.”
