2022 HSC Assessment Handbook and HSC Rules and Procedures Guide

On the first Wednesday back this term, I addressed Year 11 at a special assembly (via MS Teams) about the 2022 Higher School Certificate and Assessment. I also addressed parents/carers of Year 11 that evening regarding the same. 

At the assembly, the students were ‘walked through’ the 2021-22 Edition of the HSC Assessment Handbook and the Assessment Tasks Calendar for the remainder of this year. Both these documents are available on Canvas and the Parent Portal.

In addition, NESA has released an information guide titled 2022 Higher School Certificate Rules and Procedures. This guide is also available on Canvas and the Parent Portal.

It is expected that all students would thoroughly familiarise themselves with all the information regarding the 2022 HSC in order to plan and prepare for the rigours and demands of the HSC year ahead. I would also urge parents/carers to read this information with their sons.

The information presented in these documents focuses on the rules associated with procedural matters governing the HSC, particularly assessment and examinations, such as conduct, malpractice, illness/misadventure, etc.

It is also important to note that students will confirm they have read, understood, and agree to abide by the HSC rules and procedures when they sign their HSC Confirmation of Entry form from NESA in first term next year.
