COURSE DESCRIPTION
Year 11 and 12
The senior curriculum builds on the solid educational foundations students have experienced at St Ursula’s College. The extensive junior curriculum and dedicated teachers have provided opportunities for balanced and broad experiences and also cater for individual needs, gifts and talents. Students are better prepared to seek subjects and experiences in the senior school that will optimise their skills and talents, provide scope for increased depth and specialisation, and prepare them well for future career pathways.
The senior curriculum at St Ursula’s College is multi-faceted and allows significant opportunity for choice and flexibility. Each student is encouraged and challenged to do her best and to be her best.
In order to make the most of available opportunities it is important for each student to map out a personal learning pathway through the senior phase of schooling.
Much reflection, planning, information and advice is necessary to facilitate decision-making as students search for pathways through the senior phase of learning.
In making choices for the senior phase of learning it is important to identify learning types /pathways/ subjects which:
• you enjoy • reflect your ability and/or aptitude • reflect your interests • meet the prerequisites of your intended pathway • provide appropriate challenge and engagement … to stretch your boundaries … to make the most of your capabilities • allow you to meet your career and employment goals • keep your options open • develop skills, knowledge and attitudes useful throughout life • strike a balance • allow time for you to meet your outside school commitments
It is important to choose carefully as your decisions may affect the types of occupations you choose in the future, your success at school and your feelings about school.
