Senior Schooling provides opportunities for students to explore their intended pathway and post high school opportunities. There are many opportunities to link with industry and tertiary education organisations to extend their interest areas.
Year 10 Curriculum
Students in Year 10 begin the transition to the senior school. They continue to have opportunities to specialise in areas of interest and success when developing their career pathway.
The course of study for Year 10 is designed to encourage our young people to consult with families and teachers to choose subjects that they enjoy and are able to achieve success in. A key component of Year 10 is the support of every student as they develop their Senior Education and Training (SET) Plan to guide subject selection for Years 11 and 12.
Year 10 students will study two semesters of English, Science and Mathematics. They also study one semester each of History and Core Physical Education. Students will select four elective subjects from the learning areas of Health and Physical Education, Humanities, Business, The Arts, Technology, and Languages.
Students in Year 10 participate in a PROUD Pathways lesson each week that is focussed on pathways, goal setting, academic organisation, emotional and social health and wellbeing.
Years 11 and 12 Curriculum
Each student is required to study an English subject and at least one Mathematics subject over Years 11 and 12. An additional four subjects are selected from a wide range of General, Applied and VET certificates. Many opportunities exist for TAFE study, school based apprenticeships and traineeships.
All students participate in a PROUD Pathways lesson each week that is focussed on pathways, goal setting, academic organisation, study skills, emotional and social health and wellbeing.
Students may choose alternative pathways as part of their SET Plan, e.g. the study of a university subject, a TAFE course or a school-based traineeship or apprenticeship.
Where necessary, the school facilitates some subjects through the Brisbane School of Distance Education.
