Subject Selection Forms for 2026
Could any Year 8 or Year 9 students who still have not returned their signed paper copy of their subject selections for 2026 please do so. We are now in the process of cross-checking these with the electronic submissions.
The online portal for subject selections has now closed. If your child has not selected their subjects for 2026 online, please have them see Mrs Aplin or Mr Maher at Student Reception.
Year 12 Mock and External Assessments
I will be meeting with all Year 12’s on Wednesday 3 September to go over the school’s expectations during the mock and external exam blocks. All information required for both the Mock and External Assessment is available in SIA: https://schoolbox.shalomcollege.com/homepage/6641
We strongly recommend that all students engage with these documents before they commence their examinations.
Year 12 Results
We encourage all Year 12 students to check their myQCE account to ensure that they can view their confirmed Internal Assessment results and their projected QCE Eligibility. They need to have a private email address registered to their account – if students used their school email address to initially register, they should update this to a private email address.
At the end of the year, students will access their final subject results, including their External Exam results, their Senior Statement, and their Queensland Certificate of Education in their myQCE Student Portal account hence it is vital that they check that they can access this portal now.
