A wide range of subjects offers experience in language, speech and communication, mathematics, creativity and the arts, society, science and technology, with a view to making the most informed choices for future pathways. <br><br>Students may specialise in subjects according to individual strengths and interests within the middle two years of secondary school. The course consists of a common core group of learning areas plus up to eight half-year elective subjects. Students are introduced to approaches to work and forms of assessment which are critical in the final module. <br><br>The final two years of secondary education which leads to the award of the Tasmanian Certificate of Education prepares students for further study, work, and their future.
