One of the requirements for the award of the Western Australian Certificate of Education (WACE) at the completion of Year 12 is for students to meet a minimum required standard for literacy and numeracy. This can be achieved by obtaining a minimum of Band 8 for NAPLAN or by achieving the minimum required standard in subsequent Online Literacy and Numeracy Assessment (OLNA) testing, which normally occurs in Years 10, 11 and 12.
The School Curriculum and Standards Authority has recently informed all schools that current Year 9 students who have not achieved the minimum required Band 8 for NAPLAN components will be able to complete OLNA this year in Term 4.
Parents of affected students will soon receive more information about this.
Students who have been contacted about completing Round 2 of the Online Literacy and Numeracy Assessment (OLNA) will complete their assessments at the following times:
A reminder that the next Independent Learning Day for students in Years 11 and 12 is scheduled for Tuesday 6 September (Week 8).
Year 12 students and their parents are encouraged to read the Year 12 Student Information Handbook 2022 (Part 1) produced by SCSA.
Please note that the Examination Handbook (Part 2) has recently been released.
Parents are reminded that the Year 12 Semester Two Examinations (Mock/Trial WACE Examinations) will commence on Monday 3 October (Week 2 of the school holidays) and conclude on Friday 14 October (Week 1, Term 4). Year 12 students have already received a copy of the timetable.
