Member for Davidson, Jonathan O’Dea has congratulated local students on their HSC results, released today.
“The HSC is a stressful time for students, so the release of results will be a relief for many,” Mr O’Dea said.
“433 students in the Davidson electorate are among the distinguished achievers in this year’s HSC. They include 142 students from Killara High, 117 from Brigidine College, 48 from Roseville College, 47 from St Ives High, 37 from Masada College, 28 from Covenant Christian School and 14 from Davidson High School.
“Special mention should be made of St Ives High School student, Rufei Sophie Si, who took out a prestigious First in Course Award for Chinese Background Speakers” Mr O’Dea said.
Over 76,000 students sat at least one HSC subject this year. The HSC is a qualification that provides a pathway to further study for many students. However, it is important to remember that it is only one way of accessing a university course or career.
A full record of senior secondary results, including Year 10 and Year 11 results will be available to HSC students on Friday (19 December).
This year, for the first time, students will be able to obtain their HSC Record of Achievement as a PDF file. They will be available on 7 January and will be followed by hard copies on 14 January.
Having a PDF of their results is a great advantage for HSC students. While many students will receive an ATAR and a university offer, over 30 per cent of students will use their HSC to go straight into employment, TAFE or an apprenticeship.
Results are available online and by SMS using a secure system requiring a Student Number and HSC PIN. For more information on HSC results go to www.studentsonline.bos.nsw.edu.au
The Board of Studies, Teaching and Educational Standards HSC Results Inquiry Centre 1300 13 83 23 is now open for students with questions about their HSC results.
