External assessments are held annually in Term 4.
The 2021 external assessment timetable for General and General (Extension) subjects is now available:
The timetable will be updated in Term 3 to include language and non-language Senior External Examinations (SEEs). SEEs are 100% external examinations and are different from the mainstream General subjects. SEEs are offered to adult learners and eligible Year 12 students.
The external assessment timetable is designed to:
- minimise clashes for students across the external assessment period. Where there is a clash within a morning or afternoon session, students will be allocated to the alternative session on the same day
- ensure most students sit no more than two external assessments on one day
- provide sufficient breaks between external assessments for popular courses and frequently combined courses
- enable all external assessments to be marked in time for students to receive their final Year 12 results.
