Year 12 - Confirmation, Results and QCE Eligibility 

As per the letter sent home in week 1 to parents and students, Year 12 students are in the midst of either preparing for, or submitting, their final assessments (either External Examinations or IA4 tasks). It is imperative that all required assessment is completed to a satisfactory standard in order to receive a passing grade, and the subsequent 2 credit points for each subject.  

For general subjects, students should now know their total mark (/75 or /50) leading into the external assessments. A student must sit the external assessment to receive a final grade which will be a result out of 100. This mark will convert into an A – E result and recorded on the Senior Statement. Please be aware if a student does not receive an overall result of C or better, they will not receive the two QCE credits for successful completion of the subject.  

If a student does not sit the external assessment (without an approved AARA) they will receive a NOT RATED for the subject on their Senior Statement. This will also mean they cannot receive the allocated two QCE points for the subject.  

For a student to receive a QCE they must have successfully obtained 20 credits during their senior study and passed at least one unit of both literacy and numeracy. Students can check their QCAA Learning Account to see their current QCE eligibility and can determine if they are on track to receive their QCE.
