International students at Blackburn must live with a family member or in a home-stay. To assist with their English the home-stay must be English speaking.
International Students study a semester of English language before commencing at Blackburn High School. Blackburn English Language School is the nearest provider. Students must gain the necessary level of English language competency before entering V.C.E. A semester at an English Language School is the minimum requirement. It is an advantage to come by the beginning of Year 10.
