Year 11 Science Compulsory

Although next year timetables are yet to be finalised, course selection is now finished. Any changes to student courses will now take place in January.

Course Description

Teacher in Charge: Dr D. Pontin, Mr A. McCreary.

Level 1 Science is compulsory for all students. At the end of 2022, all Year 10 students will be placed in the most appropriate course for 2023.

There are two Science courses at Level 1: 

  • Science (L1SCI), which is a broad course covering a range of topics.
  • Science Plus (L1SCP), which is a more challenging science course.

You can read about these three courses if you navigate to the Science Department via the 'Learning Areas' button on the left-hand side or the 'Science' link at the bottom of this explanation.

Both courses can lead on to Biology, Chemistry and Physics in Year 12.
