Year 11 Preliminary Examinations

The Year 11 Preliminary Examinations will take place between Monday 11 September - Tuesday 19 September. Students are reminded that they are expected to be at the College 30 mins prior to the start time of each examination. Regular lessons will resume on Wednesday 20 September. Students are reminded to carefully read their timetable to ensure that they are adequately prepared for these final assessments for Year 11.

A few reminders to ensure that College expectations are met during this assessment period:

ILLNESS/MISADVENTURE

If, for any reason you are ill or cannot attend the examination because of an accident or misadventure, you must contact Mr Harpley, Ms Gardner, Ms Miller and Ms Toogood at the College as soon as possible. The general rule is that the student is to attend the examination if possible, unless there is significant medical advice not to do so.

If you miss an examination, you must follow the College Illness/Misadventure process which includes contacting Ms Toogood and Ms Miller to make arrangements for the rescheduling of missed examinations.

ATTENDANCE

Students are only expected to attend the College for their scheduled examinations. Students timetables on Compass will indicate an event for their exams and flexible attendance during the examination period.

Students are welcome to attend the College on days that they do not have a scheduled exam. In this case, they must sign in and out at the Library. Students will only be permitted to sign in and out once (i.e they cannot come and go multiple times in a day).

Students are also welcome to study before an afternoon examination or after a morning examination in the College Library. They will be required to sign in and out at the Library.

UNIFORM AND GROOMING

Full College uniform is to be worn to each examination and regular grooming and jewellery expectations apply. 

This is an important time for them to exercise their focus on their learning goals and execute strategies to study and revise and work out what best works for them in preparing for examinations. Students are encouraged to continue to work with their teachers on revision, practise questions and to seek feedback. The Library is open on Tuesday afternoons between 3:00 -6:00pm, should students wish to utilise this space to study. The College wishes Year 11 all the best in their examinations.
