NEW: Statement of Unsatisfactory Performance (SUP) Letter for Year 7-9 students
Class teachers and KLA Leaders aim to support all students to sustain and grow in their learning throughout each year. When a student’s performance might be stalled or falling behind due to factors such as regular absence, ongoing failure to complete required learning preparation, or non-commitment to class tasks, a teacher will issue a SUP letter in order to clarify the requirements needed for that student to improve their success in a particular subject. A class teacher will communicate the need for such a letter with parents in order to work together to aid your daughter.
VET In Schools Information Night for Certificate III in Health Services Assistance (Assisting in nursing work in acute care) and Certificate III in Allied Health Assistance. Year 11 2027 students may be interested in this information session on Thursday, 11th June 2026 at 5:00 pm at Nepean Hospital - please see the flyer attached. Some information will also be provided at the College on our Subject Information Day for students on 1 June.
