Middle Sub School

It is the time of the year when students in the Middle School should be beginning to prepare themselves for their upcoming exams. We encourage the students to fully apply themselves towards their studies and ensure that they are meeting all requirements, in particular with regards to homework and revision. It is important that your child has:

A designated area in which to study away from distractions such as television and computer games etc.
A designated study time each night- it is of vital importance to establish a routine.
The foresight to manage time effectively. To work around sporting and other commitments throughout the week.
The ability to record tasks for completion in the Student Planner. This takes the guesswork out of what needs to be completed on a nightly basis.

If you have any queries or concerns regarding homework, assignment work or revision techniques, please contact your child’s subject teacher or the Sub School.

An important measure of whether a student is ready to pursue a subject at Year 12 standard or to sit their final Year 12 Exams is their performance on the End of Semester Exams. Some important elements of our Assessment Policy that you need to be aware of:

Students must pass Year 11 exams before being enrolled into Unit 3 & 4 (Year 12) of any subject
Year 12 students must pass Unit 3 Exams as well as Sept holiday practice exams before attempting final VCE Exams
If students do not pass on the first attempt, they will be required to attend extra Revision Classes after school
If students do not pass on the first attempt, they must re-sit
