Exam & GAT Information

GAT

We have the General Achievement Test (GAT) on Wednesday, the 13th of June, for ALL students sitting a year 12 subject (unit 3 and 4).

 

It is a compulsory test that takes 3 hours to complete. It tests written communication, mathematics, science and technology, humanities, the arts, and social sciences. Students are required at school at 9 am in full school uniform.

 

The test will conclude at 1:15 pm.  All year 12 students will be dismissed at this point. There are some year 11's that are required to sit this exam, we have asked, if possible, for them to remain in their period 5 &6 classes. If the test has been too demanding and they would like to go home, they need to follow normal procedures and get signed out at the office. http://www.vcaa.vic.edu.au/Pages/vce/exams/timetable.aspx

 

Year 7-10 Exams

Exam time is fast approaching!

All year 7- 10 students will have compulsory class exams in weeks 9 and 10 of term. 7-9 exams will be held in classrooms, whilst year 10 exams will be held in a common space and run in blocks.

 

Students will have individual timetables. All timetables are able to be viewed here.

To support your child, please ensure that they are revising at home in preparation for the examination period.

 

Year 11 and 12

There are no mid-year external examinations for year 11 and 12 students. However, some testing will be held in class time as we change units to best prepare them for end of year exams. Year 11 and 12 students are required to sit formal end of year exams.

 

Year 12's will also need to be available during week 1 of the September school holidays for practice exams and extra classes.
