To receive the HSC, students are required to demonstrate a minimum standard of literacy and numeracy.  This is the level of reading, writing and numerical ability needed for everyday life after school.

To show they meet the HSC minimum standard, students need to achieve Level 3 or 4 in short online reading, writing and numeracy tests of skills for everyday life.

This year all year 10 students will have the opportunity to demonstrate their achievement of minimum standards, commencing with Reading, early in Term 2.
