YEAR 8 TO 10 ELMS SELECTION PROCESS FOR 2017

At the end of each year, there are usually a small number of vacancies that arise in our Year 8 to 10 ELMS classes. In order to fill these vacancies in the fairest and most equitable manner, we will offer the opportunity to sit for an ELMS selection test to the students that have achieved the highest overall grades for Maths and Science in their Semester 1 and 2 Learning Tasks and Assessments. These students will be contacted and given a package of bridging Maths exercises to complete before they sit the selection test at school early in Term 4. A position in the 2017 ELMS class will then be offered to students in rank order of their performance in the selection test. The number of vacancies available in the ELMS program at each Year Level will be determined early in Term 4. Parents, Students and Teachers are not required to make nominations or requests to enter the ELMS program. The selection process will be based on the objective evidence of the students’ achievements in their reports.

Please contact Mr McLeod if you have any questions concerning our ELMS program.
