Stage 6 Curriculum
Year 11 & 12
There are two areas of compulsory study at La Salle Academy (Religious Education & English).
Students will then choose from a number of electives to meet the requirements for their HSC.
The calculation of units for the HSC, the requirements for an ATAR, options around vocational education (VET), school based apprenticehips/traineeships are all discussed in length with students and parents through our Year 10 'Successful Pathways Plan'. La Salle Academy is committed to working collaboratively with students and parents/guardians to choose the right senior schooling options that meet the students career needs/pre-requisities, student interests and student capabilities.
