INTRODUCTIONYEAR 10University EntranceIn Year 10 students take a group of coresubjects (taken by all students) and electivesubjects (taken by some students).Students who are planning to go to university aftergraduating will generally study six general subjects orfive general subjects and one applied subject or oneCertificate course of Cert III or higher. A prerequisitefor most University courses is a satisfactory grade inEnglish or EAL (English as an Additional Language).However, it is important to be aware of otherprerequisite subjects that may be needed for entryinto a specific Undergraduate degree. Please notethat all tertiary providers have Foundation or Pathwaycourses for initial entry into University, if the requiredATAR or prerequisites are not met from school study.The core subjects are English, Mathematics(Advanced, General or Essential), Science,Humanities, Christian Education, Lifeskills PhysicalEducation and Personal Development.Elective subjects consist of Drama, Music, Japanese,Visual Art, Food Technology, Digital Technology,Production Design Technology, Graphical DesignTechnology, Health & Physical Education, CertificateII in Business and Accounting and Business.Music, Japanese and the Certificate II in Business(aimed at vocational students), are yearlong electivesand all other electives are studied for one semester.Students taking Japanese or Music in Year 10 areexpected to have studied these subjects in Year 9.YEARS 11 AND 12There are many pathways that students in theirsenior years can take. It is important in the firstinstance for students to have a general idea ofwhat they wish to do on leaving school as this willdetermine a student’s choice of academic program.Students at Cathedral will study English andMathematics and will choose four other electives.Vocational Study OptionsStudents who wish to combine school studies withvocational studies can do so at Cathedral. Somestudents even keep the tertiary study option openwhile taking up vocational studies. Within thesix subjects students elect to study over years 11and 12, internal and external Certificate courses,school-based traineeships and apprenticeshipsand regular work experience can all be included. Inthis way, students can learn valuable skills (whilestill at school) which they can demonstrate to anemployer on graduation. A robust and full schoolleavers resume can be an important component ofa vocational student’s repertoire of learning uponcompleting Year 12. For a more thorough list ofvocational courses, please turn to pages 60-62.At the end of Year 12 all students are eligible fora Queensland Certificate of Education(QCE). Thiscertificate records a student’s performance in awide range of studies that can be undertaken inYears 10, 11 and 12, including both academic andvocational forms of learning. The management of astudent’s eligibility for a QCE occurs on an individualbasis at the school. This process is managed bythe Careers Advisor and Director of Studies.S E N I O R C U R R I C U LU M H A N DB O O K 5

YEAR 10 COURSE STRUCTUREYEAR 10 ENGLISHDescriptionThe Australian Curriculum (English) involveslearning about English language, literature andliteracy. These three interrelated areas of learningform the core of the English curriculum.Through studying English, students learn to listen,read and view, speak, write and create increasinglycomplex and sophisticated texts with accuracy,fluency and purpose. Students come to an explicitunderstanding and appreciation of the nature ofthe English language and how it works to createvarious kinds of meanings. The study of English helpsstudents to extend and deepen their relationships,to understand their identities and their place ina changing world, and to become citizens andworkers who are ethical, thoughtful and informed.It also helps students to engage imaginativelywith literature, to understand and value informedappreciation, criticism and literary history.At The Cathedral School, the language,literature and literacy strands providestudents with the opportunity to: understand and use Standard AustralianEnglish in its spoken and writtenforms in combination with othernon-linguistic forms of communication;develop a sense of the capacity ofStandard Australian English to evokefeelings, and to organise and conveyinformation and ideas;use language to inform, persuade,entertain and argue;understand, interpret, reflect on andcreate an increasingly broad repertoireof spoken, written and multimodal textsacross a growing range of settings;develop interest and skill in inquiring intothe aesthetic aspects of texts, an informedappreciation of literature, and an understandingof literary criticism, heritage and values;develop proficiency in the increasingly specialisedwritten and spoken language forms of schooling.6 T HE CATHEDRAL SC HOOLThe general capabilities are embedded in theEnglish units. These capabilities are: literacy,numeracy, information and communicationtechnology competence (ICT), critical and creativethinking, ethical behaviour, personal and socialcompetence and intercultural understanding.Three cross-curriculum priorities are designedto support relevance and address contemporaryissues: Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanderhistories and cultures, Asia and Australia’sengagement with Asia, Sustainability.Course OutlineEach teacher devises his or her own course basedaround a series of units. The units will focus on a novel,play, poetry, a genre, a theme – or a combination.A range of texts is studied including literary, massmedia and everyday texts. Grammar, spelling andpunctuation are explicitly taught in all units.AssessmentStudents will complete three written and onespoken assessment task for the year. The writtentasks are imaginative, analytical and persuasive/reflective/informative. The spoken task is anindividual speech. The assessment is completedunder a range of conditions that becomemore stringent as the year progresses.English (Supported Class)Based on diagnostic tests, NAPLAN results andwork from previous years, some students willbe offered extra support in a class designed tosuit their needs. In consultation with the Head ofEnglish, resources and strategies will be chosento enable students to engage with the course.
