HSC STUDENT ADVICE

We know our students and staff have worked hard for the HSC. The safety of our students and staff remains of utmost importance. This year extra arrangements are in place to ensure that any disruption due to COVID-19 will have minimal impact on HSC exams.

Our school has put in place a number of contingencies to help ensure exams run as smoothly as possible.

It is important that students review their timetable and plan well so they turn up for their exams on time, healthy and rested.

Any student with a pre-existing condition, that presents similarly to flu-like symptoms, should be planning now and speak to their Doctor/GP. The GP can provide a medical certificate ahead of the exams to ensure they are not sent home. If on the day of the exam your child feels unwell with flu-like symptoms, they should stay home and get tested. HSC students are prioritised for COVID-19 test results.

It’s important to note that all students will be asked if they are well before entering exam rooms.

We want all our students to sit their exams but sometimes things happen. If your child is unwell and misses their exam, contact the school. Students who are unwell will be eligible for the illness and misadventure provision with NESA.

If there are any changes to exam arrangements we will communicate with HSC students through a School based email and SchoolStream. This will be the only source of communication for these types of notifications. If in doubt, please call the school.

We wish all our students well in the upcoming exams.
