Yr 10 HSC National Minimum Standards

Advice for Year 10 Parents from NESA

The new changes regarding National Minimum Standards and HSC do not affect current Year 10 students.

If your child received a Band 8 or higher in all three areas of their 2017 Year 9 NAPLAN test - Reading, Writing and Numeracy - they have achieved the National Minimum Standard for HSC.

If a Band 8 was not achieved, students are being provided with the opportunity to sit an online test, available each term. Letters have been sent to students who can sit this test. The information in these letters remains accurate in light of the new changes.

Please be aware that if your child achieved a Band 8 in one or two areas, the online test remains applicable for the remaining area/s.

Please contact Miss Reynolds (Head Teacher Teaching and Learning - Relieving) if you have any further questions.
