Sandgate District State High School

Principal’s Welcome to the Senior School Welcome to the Senior Secondary Phase of your education. The vision for Sandgate District State High School is to “Expand the Horizons” of all students. Our curriculum structure reflects this vision. In Year 7 and 8, students study a curriculum which ensures all students get a sound general education with an emphasis on literacy and numeracy. In Year 9, students begin to specialise, choosing three electives. Year 10 is designed to assist students to better transition into Year 11 and give you a head start with your senior studies. Year 10 creates the opportunity for you to further specialise and refine your personalised course structure, supporting your pathway to your preferred post-school option. In Year 10, all students must study English and Mathematics and choose 4 other subjects, based on the following criteria:

• The student’s key strengths and aptitudes • The student’s interests • Which subjects will allow the student the best opportunity to achieve their post-school goal

Do not choose subjects on the basis of perceived workload or because your friends are choosing it! During Senior Education and Training Planning (SETP) in term 3, Year 10 students will have the opportunity to further refine your course of study before beginning Year 11 and 12. In term 4 Year 10, students have one last opportunity to make sure you are meeting the prequisites for entry into senior subjects and that your proposed course of study will achieve your post-school goals, such as achieving the prequisites required for university courses. The SETP process is a rigorous one. Heads of Department will provide information about subjects and prerequisites in Year 11 and 12, and you will receive information about OP eligibility, QCE attainment, university, VET and SATs. You will also be encouraged to think about your future and to take positive steps toward ensuring that your time in Year 11 and 12 is rewarding, and prepares you well for university, further training and/or meaningful employment. Remember that unskilled jobs are becoming a smaller part of the economy. The higher the level of education you obtain, the more likely you are to:

• obtain and keep employment • be successful at future education and training opportunities • be healthy and happy • secure higher wages and access rewarding career paths

You are about to make some important life decisions. Be actively engaged when information is provided, speak to your parents and people working in the area you are interested in, and above all, take responsibility for the person you wish to become, by making good choices.

CERTIFICATION The Student Education Profile

Students in Queensland are issued with a senior education profile when they complete Year 12. All students receive a Senior Statement, and eligible students receive a Queensland Certificate of Education (QCE) and/or a Tertiary Entrance Statement. Students who continue to study towards a QCE after completing Year 12 will receive a Statement of Results when they become eligible for a QCE.

Senior Statement

The Senior Statement is an official record of all the learning achievements in a Learning Account. It details what learning was attempted, the standard achieved and, where and when the learning took place. The Queensland Curriculum and Assessment Authority (QCAA) will issue the Senior Statement to young people who:

• have met the requirements for the QCE, or • are attending a school, and have banked at least one achievement in their learning account, and are enrolled at a school until the prescribed date at the end of Year 12,

• have completed a pattern of study which makes them OP eligible Tertiary Entrance Statement

The Tertiary Entrance Statement shows an eligible student’s Overall Position (OP) and FPs (Field Positions). An OP indicates a student’s rank based on overall achievement in Authority subjects. FPs indicate a student’s rank based on overall achievements in Authority subjects in up to five fields (areas of study that emphasise particular knowledge and skills).

Overall Position (OP) Your OP gives you a rank order position from 1 (highest) to 25 (lowest), if eligible. Your OP:

• indicates your rank order position, based on overall achievements in Authority subjects • is the combined result of your best 100 weighted semester units (WSUs) in Authority subjects • is calculated from subjects studied during Years 11 and 12 • requires you to study at least 3 Authority subjects for all 4 semesters • involves scaling using the QCS Test results • uses equal weightings for all subjects.


To be eligible for an OP, you must: • study 20 semester units of Authority subjects (the equivalent of 5 subjects over 4 semesters),

including at least 3 subjects for 4 semesters • sit for the Queensland Core Skills (QCS) Test • remain at school until the final day of Year 12.

Field Positions (FPs) FPs are additional rank orders that supplement an OP. The term ‘field’ refers to areas of emphasis in the senior curriculum. FPs are only calculated when you are eligible for an OP and are used by tertiary institutions to help differentiate between students with the same OP. It is important to ensure that you qualify for the FPs that may be used in the final selection phase for your preferred tertiary courses.

Field Positions: • indicate your rank order position based on overall achievement in Authority subjects in up to

5 fields • require completion of at least 60 weighted semester units (WSUs) of relevant Authority

subjects • involve scaling using QCS Test results • are reported in bands 1 (highest) to 10 (lowest) • use weightings that reflect the coverage of the fields in the subject syllabus

Field A – extended written expression Field B – short written communication Field C – basic numeracy Field D – solving complex problems Field E – practical performance Subject weights for determining Field Positions When calculating FPs, the QCAA uses subject achievement indicators (SAIs) for the subjects that contribute to a particular field. Subjects do not contribute equally to FPs, and some subjects do not contribute any weight to some fields. The extent to which a subject contributes to each FP depends on that subject’s ‘weight’. The table of subject weights for fields is available on the QCAA website. However, most students are likely to be selected for courses without using FPs. QCS Test The Queensland Core Skills Test:

• is a statewide test available to students in Year 12 • is based on Common Curriculum Elements (CCE) of the Queensland senior curriculum • consists of four papers: Writing Task, Multiple Choice Papers (I and II) and Short Response • is recommended for all students — OP-eligible and non–OP-eligible • is a requirement to be eligible for an OP and FPs • provides you with a result if you sit the test • is reported on a 5-point scale from A (highest) to E (lowest).

Preparation: All eligible students will sit a full practice QCS test in Year 11 to prepare them for the QCS preparation program.


Queensland Certificate of Education (QCE)

To be eligible for a QCE, a student must be enrolled with a school and registered with the QCAA. For most students, the QCE will be achieved over Years 11 and 12. Others may not achieve it until after they finish Year 12. The total amount of learning required is at least twenty credits. This reflects an amount of learning that could be reasonably achieved by most young people over a two-year, full-time program of study in the Senior Secondary years. Students must also meet the QCE literacy and numeracy requirements. What is a credit? A credit is the minimum amount of learning at the set standard that can contribute to

the QCE. A credit has two elements an amount of learning and a set standard. For example, a credit for a school subject is one semester (amount of learning) at Sound Achievement (set standard) or a credit for a certificate II qualification is 25% (amount of learning) of the competencies (set standard). Some learning achievements will be recorded in the Learning Account but will not be a credit because they either do not have the required amount of learning or they do not meet the set standard. For example, a Very Limited Achievement in a school subject does not meet the set standard to be a credit. Queensland Certificate of Individual Achievement (QCIA)

Students who are on individualised learning programs will receive The Queensland Certificate of Individual Achievement (QCIA). To be eligible, students must have impairments or difficulties in learning that are not primarily due to socioeconomic, cultural or linguistic factors.

The QCIA is an official record that a student has completed at least 12 years of education. It summarises the student’s knowledge and skills for employers and training providers.

Subject results Levels of Achievement / competencies can be obtained in individual subjects and contribute towards student’s OP, selection rank and QCE at exit. They are reported under the headings:

• Authority subjects - Authority subject results contribute to OP, selection rank, and QCE

• Authority-registered subjects - Authority- registered subjects contribute to selection rank and QCE

• Vocational Education Training (VET) - VET results contribute to selection rank and QCE

• Recognised subjects/courses. - Contribute to selection rank and QCE

Recognised subjects/courses

• University subjects • VET certificates • Australian Music Examination Board (AMEB)


Vocational Education and Training (VET) VET is ‘Education and training for work’ and part of a broader educational network in Australia that includes schools, universities and adult and community education. VET may be undertaken at school or through a registered training provider. The qualifications gained from VET are nationally accredited and the skills gained will also allow individuals to enter the workforce and/or to move on to further vocational or academic studies. Certificate I to Advanced Diploma qualifications can be completed through VET. All students will be enrolled in the Certificate II in Skills for Work and Vocational Pathways during their senior phase of school. This will contribute towards their QCE. School-based apprenticeship and traineeships Part-time apprenticeships or traineeships can be undertaken during the senior phase of schooling. These are endorsed training packages, based on industry standards that can lead to nationally recognised qualifications under the Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF).

Flexibility The qualification will recognise more learning options. Students can design a program of study to match their career goals. There is more flexibility in what, where and when learning occurs as portions of the learning needs do not take place at school. Some learning can be with a registered training provider, in a workplace or with a community group. Law The QCE complements the Government’s “Learning or Earning” laws which mean everyone will be required to complete Year 10 at school or other learning provider. Students can go on to complete a further two years of education and training by completing their senior phase of schooling or choose full time employment. For more information:

• visit the Queensland Curriculum Assessment Authority (QCAA) website at www.qcaa.qld.edu.au • visit the Department of Employment and Training at www.det.qld.gov.au for information about

school-based apprenticeships and traineeships or contact the school

PLANNING YOUR PATHWAY TO A QCE


SENIOR EDUCATION PATHWAYS All Sandgate DSHS students are required to determine a pathway of study that is suitable for them. The earlier the students determine this, the easier the subject selection process will be and should lead to greater success in their chosen subject choices.

PATHWAY OPTION 1: OP PATHWAY Students can seek tertiary entrance by obtaining an OP. To be eligible, they must study 20 semester units of Authority subjects, including at least three subjects for four semesters each, and sit the QCS Test (see OPs and FPs for more information). Students must also choose courses that meet the subject prerequisites for their tertiary preferences. Students who satisfy the prerequisites are then selected for particular courses based on their OP. Students with the best OPs are offered places first. In some cases institutions need to differentiate between students with the same OP by using FPs. In cases where it has not been possible to separate applicants for the same course by using the OP followed by the FPs as the primary means of selection, QTAC will use the Australian Tertiary Admission Rank as a final discriminator.

PATHWAY OPTION 2: SELECTION RANK If you wish to undertake tertiary study in Queensland, but are not OP-eligible, you can apply to QTAC for a selection rank, which is an alternative method of tertiary entrance. This selection rank is not accepted in other states and territories in Australia. What is a selection rank? A selection rank is a rank based on the achievement in your best 20 semesters or the equivalent on your Senior Statement. How are selection ranks calculated? Selection ranks for OP-ineligible students are calculated using a schedule developed by QCAA and QTAC in consultation with tertiary institutions. Selection ranks are made up from students results in a mixture of Authority subjects, and/or Authority-registered subjects, and/or vocational education units of competency/modules undertaken in Years 11 and 12. Only the best 20 semester units of study are used. If students sit the QCS Test, their test results will be used in the calculation of a selection rank. If students achieve a D result or better in the QCS Test , the selection rank may be moderated upwards. The maximum selection rank a student can get is around 90 (equivalent to an OP 6).

PATHWAY OPTION 3: VOCATIONAL EDUCATION & TRAINING (VET) This pathway is most suitable for students that have no intention of studying at university. Vocational Education and Training (VET) refers to education and training that focuses on delivering skills and knowledge required for specific industries. It is a learning option for young people in the senior phase of learning. Participating in VET can:

• provide credit points towards the attainment of a Queensland Certificate of Education, and/or the attainment of a nationally recognised VET qualification

• support a young persons transition to employment, vocational and higher education pathways. Other benefits of participating in VET include (but are not limited to):

• obtaining practical experience from work • gaining familiarity on how workplaces operate • developing employability skills • allowing students to explore the potential career path they would like to pursue.

Students choosing Certificate II in Engineering Pathways can participate in Structured Workplace Learning (SWL). SWL is an initiative of Manufacturing Skills Queensland. There is no cost associated with the program if students find their own work placement. Where the student can’t find Work Placement then the school can help for a fee of $35 per placement.

o The SWL program needs to be completed in 4 x 1 week blocks. It can be completed with the same employer, or 4 different employers or a combination thereof. o While participating in the SWL program, students are expected to operate at the standard of an apprentice, trainee or entry level employee within the business that they are undertaking their SWL program o This standard will be used by employers to rate the students’ performance. By allowing the employer to set the standards at which the students are required to operate, it is anticipated that they will gain a realistic expectation of the employability skills required for their chosen pathway. o Successful completion will result in two QCE points being awarded.

Students choosing both Certificate II in Engineering Pathways and Certificate II in Automotive Vocational Preparation only complete 1 SWL.

BUSINESS The Business Faculty offers three Year 10 subjects (students may choose more than one): • Introduction to Accounting: Introduction to Accounting focuses on preparing students for the year 11 and

12 Accounting course. Where there is business, there is accounting. It is the backbone of all businesses and provides a gateway into employment in any industry area. Studying Accounting will also provide essential personal skills that will help you navigate your personal finances and make sensible savings choices. In year 10, students will experience life as an investor as they participate in the stock market game, prepare financial reports to show profits and losses, create spreadsheets to track data and finances and make recommendations regarding good business decisions. They may also be involved in the Ecoman (economic management) project – a business led initiative where students compete against other schools to solve a real-world business issue. Accounting is an authority subject.

• Introduction to Business Communication and Technologies (BCT) (majoring in BCT and students will

also complete the Certificate I in Business) BCT Pathways explores aspects of the business world that prepares students for the years 11 and 12 BCT program. Students will learn to analyse data, investigate business issues and make recommendations for improvement, similar to those made every day in a business environment. Students will also complete the Certificate I in Business, which will ensure they have technology skills for both personal and career use.

• Certificate I in Business (BSB10115) This practical course introduces students to the basic technological skills and knowledge required to meet both personal and professional needs. It is a competency-based course and students are issued with the Certificate I in Business qualification upon successful completion. Learn how to prepare and complete business letters and documents, design promotional material and prepare spreadsheets and charts.

In year 11 and 12, the Business Authority subjects offered are: • Accounting

Accounting is the language of Business! Any student who wants to work in the financial industry and/or own their own business needs to understand the world of finance – and Accounting provides that understanding.

• Business Communication and Technologies (BCT) Throughout the world people engage in business activities to design, produce, market, deliver and support goods and services. BCT encourages students to think intellectually, socially and morally about the role and ethical responsibilities of business in society today. BCT provides useful knowledge and skills for life. It lays an excellent foundation for students in tertiary study and for their future employment.

The Business VET subjects (which contribute to a rank) that students can select are: • Certificate II in Business (BSB20115) and/or • Certificate III in Business (BSB 30115)

These are practical, skill based qualifications. The certificate II will be offered to students in year 11. If the qualification is achieved the students will enrol in the Certificate III in Business program in year 12.

A summary of the subject pathways is presented in the table below.

• English

In year 10 English, students continue to engage with the Australian Curriculum to further develop their understanding of language, literacy and literature. In doing so, students listen to, read and view a range of texts including media texts, films, poetry, plays and novels. Students create a variety of spoken and written texts to persuade, entertain and inform audiences.

Year 10 English is a single course of study designed to prepare students for both Authority and Authority-registered subjects in year 11 and 12. In year 11 and 12, the English Authority subject offered is:

• English

English develops students’ knowledge of how language works in social and cultural contexts, as well as the effect and influence of language in complex and sophisticated texts. The senior English course is academic and literature-focused, with students constructing complex analytical, imaginative, persuasive and reflective texts. Students of English develop their capacities to become literate members of society and acquire skills that enable them to develop as informed and active citizens. This strand of English contributes towards calculation of an Overall Position (OP) and is generally selected by students who aspire to tertiary education.

The English SAS subject (which contributes to a rank and QCE) that students can select is:

• English Communication

This is a vocational English subject with a focus on the development of practical, ‘every-day’ English skills. Students of English Communication are those who seek a post-school pathway that does not involve university education. English Communication is suitable for students who plan to enter TAFE and/or the workforce at the end of Year 12. English Communication is an Authority-registered subject that does not contribute towards calculation of an OP. The subject does, however, contribute credits towards the Queensland Certificate of Education (QCE) and a rank. It is generally selected by students who wish to develop their practical, real-life English skills.

In year 11 and 12, the Languages Authority subjects offered are:

• German

The Senior German course offers advanced studies in German language and culture, emphasising language in use. A wide range of communicative topics is studied: family, sports & hobbies, future plans & occupations, health, social issues and festivals and events. Holidays and holiday planning, climate & geography, roles in society, personality & relationships, the environment & current events are also covered.

• Japanese

The study of Japanese continues the development of practical language skills - listening, speaking, reading and writing. Studying a foreign language fosters in students a greater sensitivity to and understanding of English. Students come to recognise the worth of all cultures and so develop a respect for and tolerance of other people. Like no other subject, languages provide students with opportunities to learn about their own culture and values, through comparative studies of other countries, including Japan. The course develops communication skills (listening, speaking, reading and writing) through the study of themes such as family and community; leisure, recreation and human creativity; school and post-school options and social issues. Students also have the satisfaction of engaging with more of the literature, formal and informal, of the target language. School-organised trips, evening functions, poster and speaking competitions, lunch days and restaurant trips are an integral part of the Japanese program. Students have an opportunity to host Japanese students from our sister school in Osaka and to travel to Japan.

These skills are also used in other subject areas and provide a basis for a wide range of tertiary study and employment. The study of Maths A emphasises the development of positive attitudes towards a student’s involvement in mathematics and include the study of Financial Mathematics, Applied Geometry, Statistics and Probability, Maps and Compasses and Linear Programming.

• Mathematics B In Maths B, advanced mathematical skills are developed which form the basis for further study in mathematics. These skills are needed not only in the traditional careers of engineering or the physical sciences, but as tools in such fields as diverse as agriculture, food technology, geography, biology, economics and management. Students will engage with topics including Introduction to Functions, Rates of Change, Periodic Functions and Applications, Exponential and Logarithmic Functions and Applications, Integration, Applied Statistical Analysis and Application.

• Mathematics C

In Maths C, students are given the opportunity to develop their full mathematical potential and extend the knowledge acquired in Maths B. Opportunities are provided for students to appreciate and experience the power of mathematics, and to see the role it plays as a tool in modelling and understanding many aspects of the world environment. The additional rigour and structure of the mathematics required in Maths C makes it a highly desirable course for students who intend pursuing a career involving the study of Engineering or Mathematics at a tertiary level. In this course, students will engage with topics including Group Theory, Real and Complex Number Systems, Matrices and Vectors and their application, Calculus, Structures and Patterns, Linear Programming and Dynamics The Mathematics Authority Registered subject offered is: Prevocational Mathematics Prevocational Maths is an Authority Registered subject and does not contribute to the awarding of an OP. It is a subject in which students engage with Number, Data, Location and Time, Measurement and Finance to learn mathematical skills for interpreting society, personal organisation and work. A wide variety of assessment techniques are used in the course keeping formal exams to a minimum.
