In Year 10, English, Prep General Mathematics or Prep Mathematical Methods, Science or Advanced Science, and Religious & Values Education are all compulsory for the full year. One Semester of Health & Physical Education and one of Humanities (chosen from the eight available) is also compulsory.
Depending on their chosen Science pathway, students then select a further three (3) or four (4) electives from the remaining twenty-one (21) available.
Most Year 10 electives are semester-length courses designed to be a preparatory experience of similar subjects offered in Year 11. However, students may choose to commence Senior studies in Film, Television and New Media, and in Drama. They may also elect to commence a vocational education pathway by selecting the Certificate 2 course. Senior subjects and Certificate courses occupy two semesters (the equivalent of two Year 10 electives).
There are no absolute prerequisites for courses in Years 11 and 12 although students intending to study a language other than English in Senior are encouraged to take that language at Year 10.
