Mr Simon Vaughan, Deputy Principal
Another year is flying past with the recent Celebration of Excellence Awards Night and Graduation being held. Being such a short term, it is imperative that students are into their good study habits both at school and at home. One way of ensuring that students set themselves up for success is being at school and constantly reviewing the Term 4 Assessment Calendars emailed home and found on the school’s website.
The Year 12s have now commenced their external assessment. The exam schedule can be found on the QCAA website. I would also encourage all students to have created a MyQCE student portal log-in as this is where Year 12 results can be found. The College does not issue Year 12 report cards nor certificates. When registering, students are advised to use their personal email, not their school email address. Results for Year 12 students from QCAA this year will be available from 9:00 am Wednesday 11 December. QTAC will release ATARs on Friday 13 December. Depending on the student’s circumstance they may have access to one or more of the following in their learner profile on the MyQCE website:
- Senior Statement
- Statement of Results
- Queensland Certificate of Education
- Queensland Certificate of Individual Achievement
This term will go quickly so it is important that students are familiar with due dates for assessment and also the assessment policy, which again can be found on the College’s website. Ideally, but not always accessible, if students are requiring an extension or miss an exam, a medical certificate is best practice. Contacting the classroom teacher first and then the respective MLC is also another good practice to get into.
All the best for the rest of this term.
Regards,
Simon Vaughan
