VET and the NTCET


In 2023 Darwin High School students will have the opportunity to join our Centre for Skills and Training which will cater for Year 10 and Year 11 students in its first year, and will include Year 12 students from 2024.

About VET and the NTCET

To complete the NTCET, students must achieve 200 NTCET credits, 160 of which can be gained through Vocational Education and Training (VET). Within these, students must also satisfy the literacy and numeracy requirements of the NTCET. The remaining 10 credits are gained from the Personal Learning Plan (10 credits).

Students can earn 5 NTCET credits for successfully completing 35 hours of VET, and 10 NTCET credits for 70 hours. The SACE Board will decide whether the NTCET credits earned for a particular VET qualification will be recognised at Stage 1 or Stage 2.

The Compass App

Students and their families are encouraged to download the Darwin High School Compass app to their smart phone/tablet device. Compass app allows you to stay up to date with announcements and events, complete a range of e-forms for student absences and excursions and easily contact us via phone or email direct from the app.
