Year 12

Studying Throughout the Trial Examinations

Throughout the Trial Examinations, please take note of the study habits that are working and any aspects or areas where you may have concerns. Dr Prue Salter has agreed to meet via Zoom with Yr 12 on Tuesday, 7th September from 10.30am to 11.30am and you can ask her advice on the day. Dr Salter is hoping to help our Yr 12 students to develop and refine their study skills for their senior studies in high school and beyond.

Life After Yr 12

Recognising that Yr 12 is not make or break in terms of the future can be a means of putting anxieties or fears into a more useful framework. The BetterHealth program, an initiative of the Victorian government, had this to say about the Yr 12 examination process and student futures:

‘…there is life after Yr 12 exams!

Whatever your child wants to do with their life, there’s always a way for them to achieve their dreams. If they have determination and a positive attitude, and are willing to do whatever it takes, they can always get where they want to go – they might just have to take a different route to get there.’
