Middle School

SET PLAN-Yr 10

Throughout term 2 and 3, students will navigate the SET Plan process which is about selecting subjects and courses that align to their career aspirations. The first step to this is the Gold Coast Careers festival, approximately 100 students have elected to attend on Friday 3 May to learn all about what careers are out in the big wide world. If your child has missed this opportunity, they will be able to attend next year.

Throughout he term, all year 10 students will then learn about the subjects/ certificates and pathways available for  2025. Please look out for emails from the Middle School Team.

Work Experience-Yr 10

Next week, students will receive letters for work experience in Week 10 of term 3, students have 3 options:

  1. Find their own placement (preferred)
  2. Request to work at a primary school (school organises)
  3. Request for school to help finding placement (not guaranteed placement)

Please reach out to Mr Williams or Mr Ubank if you have questions. 

JCE-Yr 9               

Following the interim report cards, we have identified students who are not on track to reach their Junior Certificate of Education. Students who are at risk, will be assigned an academic coaching conversation with Mr Ubank, Mr Williams or Mr Hamilton in the next few weeks. Parents will be emailed about this. 

Attendance 

Whilst reviewing report cards, we have noticed an alarming trend- Students who attend less than 80% of school days are significantly more likely to underachieve in their subjects. Can you please ensure that your child is at school more often. If you are struggling to get them to school- please reach out to the Middle School team as soon as possible.
