As in previous years, the SAC alternative arrangement process will be in place to support students who have missed or are aware that they are going to miss a SAC. This process applies to all students undertaking a Year 11 or 12 subject. Please see information below for the process:

  • If students are aware that they will miss a SAC or are absent due to illness/other reasons, it is the students responsibility to obtain the SAC Alternative Arrangement form from SIMON. They must then get this approved by Mr Ficarra. 
  • Form must be completed by subject teacher, student and parent/guardian. A Medical Certificate is highly encouraged for Year 11 and compulsory for Year 12. 
  • Completed form to be handed to Mr Ficarra or Miss Hooper.
