Students Soar

December 19, 2017


Carramar and Duncraig Year 12 students have topped off a stellar academic year with 19 students achieving ATAR scores above 95.

St Stephen’s School Head of Secondary Duncraig Bruce Titlestad said the results were a terrific outcome for the students and the entire St Stephen’s School community. “This year’s ATAR results reflect not only the outstanding effort of students, but the ongoing support and guidance provided by teachers and parents. We congratulate our community on another wonderful year of learning.”

Schools are advised that 2017 Year 12 students will be able to access their results online at https://www.wace.wa.edu.au on Tuesday, 19 December 2017.

To log on, students will need their student number and other personal identification information. It is advisable that students provide an alternate email address via the student portal. This is to avoid issues where school email accounts close prior to the release of results.

Students who experience technical difficulties in accessing their information need to contact the Authority at wacehelp@scsa.wa.edu.au [monitored from Monday to Friday (excluding public holidays) between 8:00am to 5:00pm].

Schools are reminded that the Authority may need to speak with the specified contact person early in January should students question the results reported by schools to the Authority.

Students will receive their folios of achievement (i.e. WACE, WASSA and ATAR course report) during January 2018.

Students who are seeking details relating to university admission (including their ATAR) are advised to contact the Tertiary Institutions Service Centre.

Year 12, 2017 – External WACE Examinations

October 5, 2017

Please remember if you are unwell and unable to attend your WACE exam, you must see a relevant medical specialist on the day of the exam and obtain a detailed medical certificate. This applies to each separate exam. You are responsible for sending your whole application to SCSA. A request for Sickness/ Misadventure is made by you to SCSA, and not through the school. You obtain the form from: http://www.scsa.wa.edu.au. It is always strongly recommended and preferable that you attend all exams, even if you are slightly unwell.

 

If you do not sit the examination for an ATAR course, then that course will be deemed by SCSA to be incomplete and will not be counted for ANY element of the WACE, nor will the pair of units for the Year 12 course appear on your WASSA (Statement of Attainment). This is also the case related to attendance and participation in courses with practical examinations (you need to sit both components). This has been previously explained to you in Education Plus. If you are unwell on the day of an exam, it is best to sit the exam and do your best, plus go to the doctor for a medical certificate and apply for Sickness and Misadventure.

 

Best wishes for your exams! Study Seminars are being held during the first week of this term so that your Mock Examinations can be returned to you and you can overview your course. Please email your class teacher or HOLA if you need to catch up during the study break to organise a meeting time.
