Earlier this term, Year 10 students participated in the HSC Minimum Standards Tests at the College. The test results are now available and an email was sent last week that outlined the level of achievement in each of the domains of reading, writing and numberacy.

The report for specific levels of achievement in each of the three domains is available for download through NESA's Students Online account. Students are able to access the reports should they wish to print a copy for their records. For more information regarding the HSC Minimum Standards, please visit the NESA website: http://educationstandards.nsw.edu.au/wps/portal/nesa/11-12/hsc/hsc-minimum-standard.

If students did not meet the minimum standard in any of the domains, they will be offered additional opportunities to meet each standard this year and, if required, can continue future testing into Year 11 or 12. Mr Tim Stevens will be providing individual support to all students and he will contact your daughter to assist her with future testing.

Should you have any questions about the HSC Minimum Standards tests, please don't hesitate to contact me on 4629 2999 or email Dr D Bourne - Assistant Principal, Learning and Teaching (dbourne@saintpatricks.nsw.edu.au).
