Year 12 Exams 

As we approach both the Mock and WACE exams, it is important for you and your child to be fully informed of the requirements and expectations for the coming weeks. 

There are 2 sets of exams. The first are the Mock exams and are run by the school during the second week of the Term 3 school holidays. These contribute to their school mark. The timetable for these exams are below. 

Students have now been given both their Mock Exam timetable and WACE Exam timetables. They can also access their WACE Timetable via their SCSA Student Portal.

End of School Year for Year 12 students 

General/VET/WPL students will finish their programs on Friday, 16 October 2025. However, if they still have work outstanding, they will be required to attend school each day for the first week of Term 4 or until the work is completed. Students will only be able to get their Clearance forms signed-off during the last three days of Term 3. 

ATAR students are required to attend school for the first week of Term 4. This is to receive their exam results and to receive feedback ready for the WACE exams. 

All Year 12 students are required to attend the Final Assembly and Year 12 Breakfast on Friday, 17 October 2025.  Students will be able to leave school once the assembly has finished.  

Year 11 Exams 

This year the Year 11 exams will run from Monday, 17 November to Friday, 28 November 2025.  Students will receive their individual timetable at the beginning of Term 4. Teachers are preparing their students for these exams as the lead in time must be extensive. Students can access the SCSA website to obtain practice exams or click the link below.

ASPIRE Breakfast 

In Week 7 we held our first Year 11 ASPIRE Breakfast. This event is by invite only to students who will generate an ATAR score. These are held 5 times throughout Year 11 and 12 and aim to motivate students to achieve their best as well as offering strategies and suggestions for future study. Each breakfast, we have a guest speaker to impart their wisdom on our students. This term we welcomed Tristan Forbes, a graduating student from 2024. Tristan was fantastic in his presentation to our students and is now studying Engineering at Curtin University. We are very appreciative of Tristan (and all other guest speakers) for coming in to speak with our students. 

Year 10 Subjects 

Students have now selected their pathway and courses for 2026. The expectation is that students continue to work diligently to maintain or enhance their work ethic to maximise their chance of success in Year 11. Good habits need to be established early, and we know Year 11 Semester One is a big challenge. Any student wishing to change their subjects for next year must book an appointment with Mr Cheeseman. Students must be aware, the grid has been finalised, therefore not all changes can be approved. 

Hot Laps!

Last week, we were lucky enough to have the Cove family offer an amazing experience to some students from Belridge Secondary College and Belridge Education Support Centre. Two race cars, which are driven by Belridge Secondary College students (Charlotte Cove and Ashleigh Cove), were on display at the College. Students were able to sit in and even start the cars under strict supervision. The Cove family have offered to give 6 lucky students a chance to experience Hot Laps at Wanneroo Race Track with both Charlotte and Ashleigh driving. Students who demonstrate our College values will go into the draw to win a voucher for this exhilarating experience. We are very grateful to the Cove family for their ongoing support of positive initiatives at Belridge Secondary College.
