PREFACEComprehensive data about the provision of Languages education in Victorian government schools has been collected centrally and published since 1991 by the Victorian Department of Education and Training (DET). This report provides an analysis of the provision of Languages education in 2017 in Victorian government schools, including the Victorian School of Languages (VSL). It also includes data about the provision of Languages education in accredited community languages schools funded by DET in 2017. The report does not include data about the provision of Languages education in non-government schools.

All Victorian schools are required by legislation and as a condition of their registration with the Victorian Registration and Qualifications Authority to provide instruction in the eight learning areas, including Languages.

In 2017, 22 languages were taught in mainstream government primary and secondary schools, with Italian, Chinese (Mandarin), Japanese, Indonesian, French, Spanish, German and Auslan the most-studied languages across primary and secondary schools. In 2017, 1,314 (92.1 percent) of government primary and secondary schools offered Languages programs to a total of 394,739 students across primary and secondary schools. A further 4,233 students were enrolled in taster programs at the secondary level. A taster program exposes students to a range of languages for a short period before they select one language for ongoing study.

In addition, the Victorian School of Languages provided out-of-school-hours and distance education programs in 51 languages to 17,612 students who could not access their language of choice in their mainstream school. Accredited community language schools (CLS) also provided out-of-school-hours programs in 42 languages to a total of 35,956 students. Students who attended the VSL and CSL may also have studied a language at a government or non-government mainstream school.

In total, students in Victoria studied 66 languages through government schools, the VSL and CLS in 2017. Appendix 1 contains a list of the 66 languages by education provider.

The 2017 report includes a long-term (1996-2017) overview of trends in the provision of languages education in government schools (Figure 1.6). This table shows the trends in the number of primary and secondary schools providing a languages program. Figure 1.7 shows the trends in the number of primary and secondary students learning a language from 1996-2017.


1. OVERVIEW OF LANGUAGES EDUCATION IN 2017The following analysis reviews Languages education in Victorian government primary and secondary schools over the last seven years. It provides an overview of the current state of Languages and highlights the differing patterns in the study of Languages at the primary and secondary levels.

VICTORIAN GOVERNMENT PRIMARY AND SECONDARY SCHOOLS

This report considers data collected in August 2017, from 1,427 government schools in Victoria. Across these schools, 1,197 offered primary-level schooling and 307 schools offered secondary-level schooling. English language schools and special schools are not included in this figure, nor are they considered in this report.

It should be noted that the number of government schools changes slightly each year. For example, data from 1,454 schools was considered in the 2012 report, while this number decreased to 1,436 in 2016 and again to 1,427 schools in 2017. Therefore, percentages, as well as numerical data, are provided for clarity in some tables and figures (e.g. Figure 1.2).

LANGUAGES PROGRAMS IN VICTORIAN GOVERNMENT SCHOOLS

In 2017, 1,314 (92.1 percent) of 1,427 government schools in Victoria offered Languages programs. A total of 394,739 students (67.0 percent of all students) were enrolled in these programs. Of these, 4,233 students were enrolled in taster programs at the secondary level where they studied two languages. There were also 17,612 enrolments at the Victorian School of Languages (VSL), bringing the total number of enrolments in Languages programs in 2017 to 416,584 (Table 1.1).

Twenty-two languages were taught in mainstream government schools in 2017, while 51 languages were studied through the VSL. Table 1.1 provides a summary of enrolments in Victorian government primary and secondary schools, as well as all enrolments at the VSL (including through distance education), for 2017. Note that at the secondary level, students studying more than one language through taster programs are counted for each language in which they are enrolled. Hence, Table 1.1 represents student enrolment figures, not the number of students studying a language.

*Note that the second column counts the number of schools teaching each language, while the other columns count program numbers. If an F-9 or F-12 school offers a Languages program at both primary and secondary levels, it is counted in both the Primary level and Secondary level programs column. Hence, the total in the Number of schools column is sometimes less than the Total programs column.

LONG-TERM OVERVIEW FOR LANGUAGES PROVISION The Department has collected and published data on the provision of Languages education in Victorian government schools since 1991. This data enables the Department to monitor enrolment trends by language, year level and language teaching time.

Figure 1.6 shows the trend in the number of government schools providing a languages program over the twenty three period 1996 to 2018. (The 2018 data was collected via the Languages Questionnaire, which is administered annually in March to schools identified in the previous year’s August school census as not providing a language program.) Figure 1.6 shows that the decline in the number of schools providing a languages program, particularly at the primary level has been reversed over the last six years, with 94.2 percent of primary schools providing a languages program in March 2018. However, despite the significant increase in the number of primary schools providing a languages program, there remain ongoing challenges in ensuring that all Foundation to Year 10 students have access to quality languages programs. This includes ensuring the sustainability of languages programs particularly in small rural schools, strengthening the provision of primary to secondary school language pathways and increasing the time on task.

Figure 1.7 shows student enrolments in languages programs have also significantly increased at the primary level over the last five years. Student enrolments at the secondary level have remained stable over the same period.

In 2017, 18.4 percent of students who graduated from a government secondary school had completed a VCE Unit 4 Language study, an increase of 0.6 percent on the previous year. (Table 4.5).

This commitment to Languages education at the senior secondary level was demonstrated across all schools in Victoria, with 21.8 percent of students across government, Catholic and independent schools graduating from Year 12 with a Language study in 2017. This includes the study of a language through a mainstream school, the VSL, a CLS, as well as students who completed their schooling through the International Baccalaureate (IB) program in a Victorian school.

Figure 3.4: Primary level Languages enrolments, by year level, 2011–17

LANGUAGES TAUGHT As noted above, seventeen languages were taught in government primary schools in 2017 (Table 3.4), with primary school students also studying 46 languages through the VSL. Overall, students at the primary level studied a total of 50 languages in mainstream schools and/or through the VSL in 2017. See Tables 1.1 and 3.4 for full details.

The eight most-studied languages at the primary level were Chinese (Mandarin), Italian, Japanese, Indonesian, French, Auslan, Spanish and German. These eight languages accounted for 97.8 percent of enrolments in government primary schools (see Table 3.4). The other languages studied in government primary schools, in order of highest to lowest enrolments, were Korean, Aboriginal languages, Greek, Hindi, Vietnamese, Turkish, Arabic, Tongan and Macedonian.

Figure 3.5 provides a proportional representation of Languages enrolments in government primary schools, while Figure 3.6 provides a trend analysis of enrolments since 2011 for the six most-studied languages in 2017.

4. DETAILED FINDINGS: VICTORIAN GOVERNMENT SECONDARY SCHOOLS

SCHOOLSIn 2017, 277 secondary schools, 90.2 percent, provided Languages programs. Figure 4.1 shows the percentage of secondary schools with Languages programs by year levels from 2011 to 2017.

Of the secondary schools that offered Languages programs in 2017, 39.7 percent provided continuous programs from Years 7 to 12, enabling students the opportunity to study a language through to completion of school (Figure 4.2). A further 18.4 percent of schools offered Languages programs from Years 7 to 10 or Years 7 to 11.

*‘Other sequences’ refers to the provision of Languages programs at non-sequential year levels, or partial sequences.

^Represents programs in senior secondary schools.

Twenty languages were taught in government secondary schools in 2017. While the number of schools offering Languages at the secondary level remained relatively stable, there was some variation in the number of Languages programs and two new programs were offered, Classical Greek and Danish (see Table 4.1 for further details). However, overall student enrolments continued to increase, as has been the pattern in recent years (see Table 4.2).

STUDENTSIn 2017, 40.9 percent or 93,024 students studied a language in government secondary schools (Table 4.2 and Figure 4.4). A further 4,233 enrolments represented students who studied more than one language through taster programs (where students are exposed to a range of languages for a short period before they select one language for ongoing study), bringing the total number of Languages enrolments to 97,257 (Table 4.3). Overall, the number of students studying a language increased between 2016 and 2017. See Table 4.2 and Figure 4.3 for further detail.

Note that in Figures 4.3, 4.4 and Table 4.2, students are only counted once (93,024 students). All other tables and figures in this section contain information on the number of enrolments in Languages programs (97,257 enrolments). Enrolment figures double count students who are studying more than one language through taster programs. Eighteen secondary schools offered taster courses in 2017, where, for example, students studied two languages for twenty weeks each per year.

It is also important to note that the Year 12 enrolment figures in this section count students enrolled in Year 12 who are studying a language. However, a large number of students complete a Unit 4 Languages study before they are actually enrolled in Year 12. These students are not included in Year 12 figures in this section. The section, VCE Languages Study, explains this discrepancy and provides further details about the study of Languages through to the Year 12 (Unit 4) level amongst graduating students.

LANGUAGES TAUGHTTwenty languages were taught in secondary schools in 2017 (Table 4.3), with secondary school students also studying 46 languages through the VSL (of a total of 51 languages available at the VSL), including via distance education. Overall, students at secondary schools studied a total of 50 languages through schools and/or the VSL in 2017. See Tables 1.1 and 4.3 for details.

Languages study patterns differ at the primary and secondary level. However, as in 2016, of the eight most-studied languages at both levels, seven were the same: French, Italian, Japanese, Indonesian, Chinese (Mandarin), German and Spanish, with Greek rounding out the eight at the secondary level. These eight languages accounted for 97.5 percent of enrolments at the secondary level. The other languages studied, in order of enrolments, were Auslan, Vietnamese, Latin, Turkish, Arabic, Macedonian, Aboriginal Languages, Persian, Hebrew, Hindi, Classical Greek and Danish.

Figure 4.5 provides a proportional representation of the languages studied at the secondary level. Figure 4.6 shows the secondary enrolments in the six most studied languages from 2011 to 2017.

Figure 4.6: Secondary enrolments for the six most-studied languages, 2011–17

Retention ratesTable 4.4 looks at retention rates of language students between Years 7 and 12. It includes the same cohort of students enrolled in Year 7 in 2012 and in Year 12 in 2017. At Year 7, Indonesian, Japanese, Italian and French were the most-studied languages, but at Year 12, proportional enrolments in Italian and Indonesian had decreased significantly. This trend was countered by a significant increase in proportional enrolments in Chinese (Mandarin), which is largely due to an increase in the number of students in Chinese (Mandarin) as a First Language programs at the senior secondary level (Table 4.4). An increase in the proportion of French enrolments is also observed, and Japanese enrolments remain fairly consistent. While German and Greek had proportionately lower enrolments at Year 7, retention rates for these languages typically remain strong.

VCE LANGUAGES STUDY VCE (Years 11 & 12) enrolment figures in Tables 4.2 and 4.3 refer to students who are studying Languages at each year level. However, the flexible nature of the Victorian curriculum results in many students completing a Languages course before they enrol in Year 12. While Table 4.3 (above) indicates that 2,385 Year 12 students studied a language in 2017, it is important to note that over 2,000 Year 12 students had either already completed a Languages course or were continuing Languages study with the VSL or through a CLS.

Although Table 4.2 (above) indicates that 7.0 percent of students enrolled in Year 12 were completing Unit 4 in a Languages course, this figure rises considerably once we consider government secondary school students who completed a Languages course (Unit 4) at an earlier year level or outside of regular school classes through the VSL or through a CLS.

Among government school students who were eligible to graduate in 2017, 18.4 percent had completed a Languages course either through their school, through the VSL (including via distance education) or through a CLS. This data was provided by the VCAA. Table 4.5 lists the most-studied languages by students who graduated from VCE in 2017, as well as figures for previous years going back to 2011.

Source: VCAA, 2017. *An adjustment has been made to the overall enrolment figures when calculating the percentage of students studying a language. From 2016, the percentage of language students has been calculated against the number of ‘students who graduated from VCE’. Prior to 2016, calculations were made on ‘students eligible to graduate from VCE’.

Snapshot of students who graduated from VCE in 2017 (students from Victorian government schools) and the languages studiedTable 4.6 provides information about the students who graduated in 2017 having completed a Languages course during their senior secondary schooling, including students who finished a Languages course when enrolled in Year 10, Year 11 or Year 12. Overall, a majority of students (57.4 percent) completed Unit 4 of a Languages course when they were enrolled in Year 12. A further 38.9 percent of students completed Unit 4 of a Languages course when they were enrolled in Year 11, while the remaining 3.7 percent completed Unit 4 when they were enrolled in Year 10.

CONTACT TIMEThe average contact time for Languages programs varied at each year level and across schools (see Figure 4.7).

The time allocated to Languages study also varied from school to school. In 2017, 84.9 percent of Year 7 Languages students, 84.6 percent of Year 8 Languages students and 95.6 percent of Year 9 Languages students were in programs of 120 minutes or more per week. At Years 10, 11 and 12, 79.1 percent, 98.1 percent and 98.6 percent of students respectively, studied a language for 180 minutes or more per week.

REGIONAL PROVISION OF LANGUAGESIn 2017, ten or more languages were offered in all four Victorian regions. Italian was the most-studied language in the SWV and NWV regions, while French was the most-studied in the NEV and SEV region. Japanese was also widely studied with high enrolments in the SWV, SEV, and to a lesser extent, NEV regions (Table 4.7).

5. TEACHERS OF LANGUAGES IN VICTORIAN GOVERNMENT SCHOOLS

In 2017, there were 1,874 qualified Languages teachers teaching in Victorian government schools. Among these Languages teachers, over 160 taught in more than one school. These teachers predominantly taught at two schools, but some teachers taught at up to 13 schools through the blended delivery of programs, and often both at the primary and secondary levels. In instances where teachers taught at more than one school, the majority of these schools were government schools, although many of these teachers also worked across multiple jurisdictions, particularly those working in regional and rural contexts. This included teaching in the VSL, in Catholic and independent schools, in schools in NSW (i.e. school communities along state borders) and in CLS.

Figure 5.1 provides data on the distribution of teachers across primary, secondary schools and schools covering both primary and secondary levels.

Figure 5.1: Languages teachers, by teaching level, 2017

Table 5.1 lists the number of teachers per language, and also provides information on the qualification levels of Languages teachers in Victorian government schools. This includes qualified teachers with and without a Languages methodology. Overall, 82.0 percent of qualified teachers have a Languages methodology.

6. DESIGNATED BILINGUAL PROGRAMS IN VICTORIAN GOVERNMENT SCHOOLS

In 2017, there was one change in bilingual programs from 2016. Benalla P-12 College is no longer offering an Indonesian bilingual program. One special school, and 11 primary schools offered designated bilingual programs in 2017. (Table 6.1). Bilingual programs provide students with the opportunity to learn curriculum content in, and through, both English and another language. In addition to the language curriculum, content-based teaching is provided in two or more domains of the Discipline-based Learning Strand of the Victorian Curriculum. Schools may choose from Science, Mathematics, The Arts and The Humanities (see Table 6.1). Students are taught in or through the language for a minimum of 450 minutes per week. Additionally, other activities at these schools, such as library time, school assemblies, camps and excursions may also be conducted in the language.

Language teachers in the designated bilingual primary programs are highly qualified and are often supported by teacher aides, assistants or volunteers from the community. Table 6.1: Designated bilingual programs, 2017

7. THE VICTORIAN SCHOOL OF LANGUAGES (VSL)

The VSL is a government school which provides out-of-school-hours programs for students from government and non-government schools who cannot access the language of their choice in their mainstream school. Programs are provided outside regular school hours, usually on Saturday mornings, and are typically of three hours’ duration.

In 2017, the VSL offered 51 languages through its 42 centres in both metropolitan and regional areas, including through distance education. In total, 17,612 students from Foundation to Year 12 were enrolled to study a language through the VSL in 2017 (including enrolments via distance education). Of these, 9,433 were primary students and 8,179 were secondary students. In 2017, language programs for Kannada and Thai were introduced, and Urdu was offered for the first time since 2007 (see Table 7.1).

Distance education continued to provide an important avenue for Languages study, with enrolments in distance education representing 20.4 percent of secondary VSL enrolments in 2017. All figures referring to the VSL in this section include enrolments through distance education. Further details on distance education are available in the Distance Education Provision at the Victorian School of Languages section. Figure 7.1 provides a comparison of all VSL enrolments from 2011 to 2017 at the primary and secondary levels.

Table 7.1 sets out the total VSL enrolments for each language by year level. Forty-one of the languages taught at the VSL were studied at both the primary and secondary levels, while Dinka, Matu Chin, Swahili, Thai and Urdu were only studied at the primary level and Chinese (Cantonese), Classical Greek, Indonesian, Latin and Romanian were only studied at the secondary level. The six most widely-studied languages overall were Chinese (Mandarin), Vietnamese, Punjabi, Greek, Japanese and Arabic. Together, these six languages accounted for almost half of total enrolments (49.9 percent) at the VSL, with the remaining students spread over a wide range of languages.

In keeping with past trends, there were noticeable differences in patterns of enrolments between the primary and secondary levels across languages. Some community languages such as Greek, Punjabi, Sinhala, Malayalam and Tamil, for example, had stronger enrolments at the primary level than at the secondary level, although most community languages had fairly even enrolments across both levels. By contrast, other languages such as Japanese, French, German and Italian had a higher proportion of enrolments at the secondary level.

Figure 7.2 represents the proportions of primary and secondary students enrolled at the VSL who attended government and non-government schools.

Figure 7.2: VSL enrolments, by sector, 2017

DISTANCE EDUCATION PROVISION AT THE VICTORIAN SCHOOL OF LANGUAGESIn 2017, the VSL provided German, French, Japanese, Italian, Spanish, Latin, Indonesian, Chinese (Mandarin), Greek, Arabic, and Classical Greek by distance education to secondary students wishing to study a language which was not offered at their mainstream school, and to secondary students who were not currently attending a school. Of all secondary students enrolled at the VSL in 2017, 1,670 students, or 20.4 percent, were studying a language through distance education (Table 7.2). Figure 7.3 indicates in enrolments in the six most-studied languages through distance education between 2011 and 2017.

8. COMMUNITY LANGUAGE SCHOOLS (CLS)

CLS programs are administered by incorporated community-based, not-for-profit organisations, which are accredited for funding by DET.

CLS provide Languages education programs that are complementary to those provided by mainstream schools and the VSL. Community language schools provide programs to students from Foundation to Year 12 (depending on the language) outside mainstream school hours; i.e. after school or on weekends.

In 2017, 166 accredited CLS in Victoria offered Languages programs in 42 languages to 35,956 primary and secondary students (as funded by DET). Table 8.1 provides CLS enrolments at the primary and secondary level, by language.
