All in one place! New HSC syllabus page launched

Higher School Certificate syllabuses and related assessment advice are now easier to read and easier to find. All the key documents relating to HSC syllabuses and assessments are now linked from one simple landing page and organised by subject areas as well as quick alphabetical indexes. For the first time, HSC examination and assessment advice will be published as separate documents, rather than appearing in different places and different ways in each syllabus. This is particularly useful for students and others with an interest in several syllabuses. The new design makes it easier to navigate to all the HSC syllabus and assessment information that teachers and students need. The new two-column layout shows there are differences between the current 2009 HSC arrangements and the mostly minor changes to the 2010 HSC exams and assessments. The new syllabus pages will be progressively updated as the 2010 HSC changes to exams and assessment advice are finalised for each subject. Bookmark new HSC syllabus and assessment landing page now. Read about the background to the 2010 HSC exam and assessment changes here. Don't miss out! Get your Board news fast and from the source with our easy email news alerts.
