Stage 2
Expectations of Senior Students
Students:
- are expected to do a minimum of 1 to 2 hours of homework each night, depending on year level
- are expected to be committed to their studies and show initiative in order to attain success
- are expected to use diaries or other electronic means for the recording of homework, deadlines and tests
- must follow the school and SACE Board deadline policies for completing and handing in work
- must take more responsibility for the planning and completion of all work.
Subject Selection at Year 12
Students at Stage 2 study a minimum of 4 full year subjects or their equivalent worth 20 credits each. When making their subject selections, Stage 2 students should consider their post school pathways carefully, including any pre requisites for further study.
Independent Study
All Year 12 students (and some Year 11s) have timetabled independent study lessons each week. The purpose of these lessons is to develop and support independent study practice. Students complete work independently or under supervision, in one of the designated study areas. For some students, this may include the option of studying at home during these times.
