APPLICATIONS FOR PERMISSION TO ENROL IN WACE LANGUAGE COURSE FOR 2025

Online applications for permission to enrol in a WACE language course in 2025 in Second Language French and Second Language Chinese are available in the Student Record Management System (SRMS) via the SCSA student portal.

NAPLAN AND OLNA

Hard copies of the Individual Student Report (ISR) have been posted to families. The Australian Curriculum, Assessment and Reporting Authority (ACARA) is yet to provide access to electronic copies. 

 

You will be contacted in due course if your child is required to undertake OLNA testing. The first opportunity for current Year 9 students to attempt the OLNA will be in Term 4.

 

The abolition of the previous banding system has caused some confusion, and SCSA has provided additional information to further explain the changes. 

 

Please note that the College is unable to provide families with a student’s individual numerical score.
