This is actually not such a bad option I think. I did my VCE physics through correspondence via
Distance Education Victoria as it wasn't being offered at my school.
If physics is being offered as a subject but not Astronomy as an option, then they should still be able to attend normal physics classes but take on the astronomy components themselves with assistance from DEV or teachers at their school.
Lots of options and possibilities so don't let the school get in the way of studying the subjects you want!
