Choosing Subjects

Information for Students and their Parents

Subjects in the curriculum at Kurri Kurri High School are determined by a combination of Board of Studies and Department of Education and Training requirements, and student choice. During Term 3, students commence the selection process for their elective subjects and senior courses. Year 7 students select their semester electives for Year 8. Year 8 students select their School Certificate electives for Year 9 and 10. Year 10 students select their senior courses for the HSC. Year 11 may consider making minor changes to their pattern of study for the HSC.

Careers Information Choosing HSC Subjects for Years 11 and 12 Vocational Education

Students are provided with a wide variety of information to support their subject decisions.  They are reminded to choose the subjects that they do well in, that they enjoy and those that may support their career choice.

Whilst Kurri Kurri High School provides a wide curriculum range, it is not possible to form a class in every subject.

For further information, students and parents should contact the head teacher of the subject, the Year Adviser, our Careers Adviser or Mr Hunter.
