We congratulate the Class of 2023 on their exceptional VCE results.

The Class of 2023 achieved outstanding individual and collective VCE results. Their achievements once again place Ruyton amongst the highest performing schools in Victoria and affirms our reputation as a leading educator of girls. More importantly, these results hold so many individual stories of achieving personal best through dedication and determination.

It gives us great pleasure to share the following data:

Jemima McLeish and Charlotte N in Year 11 received a study score of 50 in General Mathematics. Congratulations to Ying Shao, the Dux of Ruyton Girls' School for 2023, achieving an ATAR of 99.95.

Proudly an open entry, non-selective school, these results are also testament to the talent and expertise of our exceptional educators. Their quality of practice and dedication to supporting the wellbeing and learning needs of every individual in our care have empowered our students to realise their potential. 

The achievements of the Class of 2023 have built on the success of peer year groups before them solidifying Ruyton's reputation as a consistent top 10 performing school for VCE results in Victoria.

At Ruyton we believe that a single grade, mark, medal or score never fully defines our success as a human being. We believe that every young woman has the ability to make her mark on the world; to raise her voice and take action, to be bold, and to lead a life of impact and purpose. It is their endeavour, morals, compassion, and actions that we will always admire. As women of character and integrity, only they have the power to define themselves and their success.
