2013 COURSE GUIDE | YOUR GUIDE TO EDUCATION AND TRAINING FOR YEARS 11 AND 12


Colin Pettit Secretary

Welcome
Some of you will already have clear and defined learning goals; a particular career in mind or an area of interest that will guide your study choices. However, for many students entering Years 11 and 12, the future may still be uncertain. There are so many career and study options that sometimes its easy to feel overwhelmed. The good news is that youre not expected to have all the answers. What is important at this stage of your education is that you keep your options open. The vast majority of todays jobs require a Year 12 or higher qualification and employers are looking for people who are flexible, adaptable and willing to learn new things. This Course Guide has been designed to provide you with information about options for Year 11 and 12 studies. Start by focussing on getting a qualification such as your Tasmanian Certificate of Education (TCE), a school-based apprenticeship or a vocational qualification (VET certificate). Over the course of your working life youll probably have six or seven different careers, each requiring different skill sets, qualifications and experiences. This means you are likely to be involved in some form of learning for many years to come. Once youve gained one qualification, you can easily begin to add different qualifications, skills and experiences to your resume as your interests change and your career progresses. You will have the option of shaping your own future and, through these choices, you will be able to create the life and lifestyle that youve always dreamed of. I wish you well as you prepare for Years 11 and 12.

YOUR GUIDE TO EDUCATION AND TRAINING FOR YEARS 11 AND 12 | 2013 COURSE GUIDE

Steps to planning your

You need Year 11 and 12 qualifications to be considered for the majority of jobs being advertised today. During Year 10 you will work with your teachers and Pathway Planning Officer to gather information about possible careers, explore options relevant to your interests and ability, and plan how you might achieve your personal and career goals. Your Pathway Planning Officer will help you to identify your ambitions and expectations for the future, and also be on hand to provide advice about making the transition to Year 11 or an alternative post-Year 10 pathway.

Year 11 and 12 studies

Pathway planning is not about locking in a decision for your future career. Its more about exploring your interests, abilities and goals and the types of things you will need to do in the future if you want to achieve those goals. When deciding on a program or course of study for Years 11 and 12, make sure you: choose programs and subjects relevant to your goals and interests read the course details carefully and ask your teachers or Pathway Planning Officer for more information if you need it use the tables at the beginning of each program description section to see where you can study the programs and subjects you are interested in. (Keep in mind that it is possible to study subjects and programs at more than one place).

Vocational Education and Training (VET)

Vocational Education and Training (VET) is a style of learning that focuses on learning through doing. Through VET you will engage in learning that is hands-on and practical, and which leads to qualifications that are highly valued by employers and industry. VET programs provide skills and knowledge required for todays workplaces through a national training system. Colleges and the Polytechnic provide access to over 300 nationally accredited training package qualifications from Certificate I to Advanced Diploma level in many training streams. In Years 11 and 12, VET subjects ranging from Certificate I to Certificate III are available, with many continuing through to Advanced Diploma level after Year 12. VET also allows you to articulate through to university, which reduces the time and money you need for a degree. There are circumstances whereby you can study Diploma level in Years 11 and 12. Contact your local College or the Tasmanian Polytechnic for more details.

Understanding the terminology

VET qualifications are recognised nationally, and are developed with industry consultation and for industry-specific requirements. This gives you real-life, practical and industry-relevant skills. Most courses also provide you with the opportunity to undertake work placements so you can get a real understanding of the industry and an opportunity to develop tangible links to employment. You will find descriptors of these Vocational programs from page 17. More detailed information is available on the National Training Information Service website: www.training.gov.au

Tasmanian Qualifications Authority (TQA)

The TQA is established by legislation as a qualifications authority for Tasmania. It makes decisions about courses, assessment, certificates, qualifications and the application to these of national and state standards.

TQA subjects

TQA subjects provide a broad range of learning opportunities which can lead to employment and further education. Colleges provide over 100 subjects across the following areas: Creative Arts Visual Creative Arts Performance English Foods and Hospitality Health and Wellbeing and Physical Recreation Information Technology Languages other than English Mathematics Mixed field programs Science and Primary Industries Society and Environment Business and law Community services History and culture World and environment Technologies and Trades. TQA subjects are organised into three levels of difficulty levels 1, 2 and 3 (with 3 being the most difficult).

YOUR GUIDE TO EDUCATION AND TRAINING FOR YEARS 11 AND 12 | 2013 COURSE GUIDE

Level 3 subjects, also known as pre-tertiary subjects can contribute to an Australian Tertiary Admission Ranking (ATAR) (more information below). Students who are on a university pathway would usually study at least one Level 3 subject in Year 11. Level 1 and 2 subjects are non pre-tertiary and do not count towards an ATAR. They can be preliminary or foundation study for a pre-tertiary program. You will find descriptors for TQA subjects from page 17. More detailed information is available on TQA website: www.tqa.tas.gov.au.

Tasmanian Certificate of Education (TCE)

The Tasmanian Certificate of Education (TCE) is a qualification that has five standards: everyday adult reading, writing and communication (literacy skills); everyday adult maths (numeracy skills) everyday adult use of computers and the internet (ICT skills) completing a full program as part of your senior secondary education and training (participation and achievement) development and review of plans for your future (Pathway Planning). Students can meet the standards in the following ways:

Tertiary Entrance score (TE)

The TQA calculates a score for each pre-tertiary subject. Your TE score is the combined scores of your best pre-tertiary subjects. At least three of these must be completed in your final senior secondary year of study. The TE score is then used to calculate an ATAR.

Literacy, Numeracy, ICT

These standards can be achieved through successful completion of appropriate subjects and programs (these are indicated in the tables throughout this publication). If your course of study does not include appropriate subjects then you can take a test conducted by the TQA. Colleges offer bridging programs in literacy, numeracy and ICT to support you in preparing for this test.

Australian Tertiary Admission Ranking (ATAR)

The Australian Tertiary Admission Ranking (ATAR) is used by Australian Universities to allocate places to students. Your ATAR is calculated automatically by the TQA from your results in TQA Level 3 (pre-tertiary) subjects. Entry requirements and ATAR scores vary by course and by university. Generally, the higher your ATAR, the better your chances are of being accepted into your preferred course. That is why the personalised learning support you will receive is so important. It will help you to maximise your ATAR. The TQA will advise eligible students of their TE score and ATAR in late December.

Participation and achievement

Subjects and programs have designated credit points. These are indicated in the TQA subject and vocational program offerings from page 17. You need to gain at least 120 points, with at least 80 at Level 2, in order to qualify for the TCE. VET programs and TQA subjects all contribute to your TCE participation and achievement. There are also other courses and programs which contribute credit points, e.g. AMEB music, Queens Scout and Queens Guide awards, CISCO. See the TQA website for further details: www.tqa.tas.gov.au.

Pathway Planning

You will meet this standard through reviewing your Pathway Plan in your tutor or home group.

If you do not achieve the TCE, you will still be issued with a Qualifications Certificate which will list all the subjects and programs you have completed. Further information is available from the TQA website: www.tqa.tas.gov.au.

Completing Year 11 and 12 gives you more options for a brighter future
2013 COURSE GUIDE | YOUR GUIDE TO EDUCATION AND TRAINING FOR YEARS 11 AND 12

A full-time senior secondary course in Years 11 and 12 will total a minimum of 600 hours. Year 12 students should include a minimum of two pre-tertiary subjects or a Certificate program.

If you are interested in a pathway to a vocational qualification

Your course should be centred around a vocational certificate program in your chosen industry area. This can lead you to direct employment, higher level Certificate and Diploma programs, and university courses. You can make up the 600 hours by choosing some TQA (Tasmanian Qualification Authority) accredited subjects to add to your certificate program. These may complement your vocational learning, and may also include some recreational and interest subjects.

If you are interested in a pathway to a University qualification

Making up a course of study

You will need to plan a two-year course keeping in mind that some subjects are prerequisites to certain university courses. There are also requirements for gaining admission into university (see University Entrance, page 14). Most Year 11 courses should feature some English and Maths because they are fundamental to a broad range of options available at the end of Year 12. You can make up the 600 hours by choosing four TQA subjects. These may be directly relevant to your career direction and may also include some recreation and interest subjects.

How do you know what level to do?

Year 10 students enrolling in Year 11 in 2013 2012 brings the introduction of the Australian Curriculum in all high schools across Australia in the areas of mathematics, English and science, and, in some schools, history. This means that if you are in Year 10 you will be taught these subjects (and assessed) on the same things as every other student in Year 10 in Australia. Your school reports this year will indicate how you are performing in English, mathematics and science according to nationally agreed achievement standards. This means that all states and territories across Australia have agreed on the standard you will be assessed on. These standards describe what is expected of you at each year level, and you will receive a rating for each subject of either A, B, C, D or E. Its important to note that these ratings are a bit different from what you and your parents (or future teachers and employers) might be used to. A rating of C for example, now means achieved the standard expected for your grade instead of satisfactory or average. So dont freak out if you get a C for English if you have only ever received As and Bs in the past! Achievement of a C standard in an Australian Curriculum subject means you have achieved the standard expected across Australia on a challenging curriculum! Until all other areas of the Australian Curriculum are finalised, Tasmanian schools will continue to use the Tasmanian Curriculum for Society and History, Health and Wellbeing, The Arts, Vocational and Applied Learning, Information and Communications Technology and Languages. You will continue to be assessed according to the Tasmanian standards/stages for these subjects until the Australian subjects replace them over the next few years.

YOUR GUIDE TO EDUCATION AND TRAINING FOR YEARS 11 AND 12 | 2013 COURSE GUIDE

Australian Curriculum Ratings

A means you have achieved WELL ABOVE the standard
expected for your grade expected for your grade your grade

At college enrolment, the course counsellors will discuss your mid-year results and advise you about which subjects will suit you best in Years 11 and 12. The best indicator is how well you have done in the past. Look at your results in English-literacy and Maths-numeracy: If you are achieving an A/B (or C in consultation with teachers) in Year 10 Australian Curriculum subjects, you could enrol in TQA Level 3 subjects in Year 11. If you are achieving a C/D rating in Australian Curriculum subjects, TQA Level 2 subjects provide the necessary foundation leading to TQA Level 3 in Year 12. In the areas of Arts and Technology, a strong interest and experience in optional classes in High School or a personal involvement in community-based learning could give you confidence to try Level 3 subjects. Year 11 students enrolling in Year 12 in 2013 Discuss your proposed learning pathway with your College/ Polytechnic teachers.

B means you have achieved ABOVE the standard C means you have achieved AT the standard expected for D means you are APPROACHING achievement at the
standard expected for your grade expected for your grade.

E means you are achieving BELOW the standard

Because of these changes to the way you are assessed/marked, its really important that you talk to your teachers and Pathway Planning Officer early in the year to work out what level you are at, and if this is good enough for the types of things you want to do next year in Year 11.

How do I enrol?
Year 10 students in government schools
If you are currently attending a government high school or district high school, your Year 10 coordinator or Pathway Planner will give you details about how you can access the information you need to enrol. Your school will make all the arrangements for your enrolment into Year 11 and you will have the opportunity to attend information and taster days later in the year. Your chosen course may be at a College, the Polytechnic, your local school (for a list of schools that offer Year 11 and 12 education and training see page 126), or a combination of these. For College courses and Polytechnic programs, you will enrol through your local College. This means that you only have to enrol once at the one place. Your College will then organise your access to the subjects and programs at the institutions that will delivery your course of study. For courses that are offered at your local school, enrolment will be through your school.

Year 11 students in Colleges and the Polytechnic

You will enrol through your current institution.

Other students, including non-government school students

You will enrol through a College in your region. You should contact the College for details to arrange course counselling and enrolment.

Step One
Year 10 students Speak with your Year 10 Coordinator and Pathway Planner about course options that suit your interests and goals. Year 11 students Review your Pathway Plan.

Step Two

Year 11 and 12 provides more opportunities for careers whether you want to go to university, start an apprenticeship or join the workforce.
Flexible Learning Network (FLN)

Flexible learning network

In addition to regular daytime classes, the Tasmanian Academy offers the opportunity for students to study off-campus through its Flexible Learning Network. The Flexible Learning Network is run cooperatively by the Tasmanian Academys eight senior secondary colleges and all flexible learning subjects in this Guide are taught by college teachers. Flexible learning is conducted through a mixture of traditional text-based work, telephone contact, email, occasional tutorials and online delivery. Some practical subjects will require attendance at laboratory sessions. This gives you the opportunity to increase your study pathway options if you encounter timetable conflicts or wish to take subjects that might not normally run at your local College. It also provides an opportunity for those students who, for reasons including geographic isolation, illness or personal circumstances, are unable to physically attend College on a regular basis. Studying off-campus through the Flexible Learning Network means that you have control over where and when you study, but it also means that you will be required to take extra responsibility to achieve success in your learning pathway. As a Flexible Learning Network student you will have access to teachers and all the facilities of your local College. You will also be allocated a support teacher who will be in regular contact to support you throughout the year.

Enrolling in Flexible Learning

You can enrol in Flexible Learning if you have completed Year 10 or if you are over 16. Mature age students who have not completed Years 11 and 12 are also welcome. You can enrol at almost any time of the year, from February to December. However, some courses need to be finished by the end of the year, so it is usually best to enrol as early in the year as you can. Before enrolling you need to be clear about why you are enrolling. When you enrol, you will talk to a course counsellor and together you will decide on the courses and subjects that will suit you best. There are eight Senior Secondary Colleges across Tasmania and their contact details are listed at the back of this guide. Contact your local College to discuss your study options.

Flexible Learning Network

What subjects are available?

Flexible Learning subjects available in 2013 are described in this course guide in the courses and programs section (listed throughout this publication) and are identified in the matrix with a tick in the Flexible Learning Network column. Subjects open and close at various times during the year, depending on student enrolment numbers, and some subjects may not be available to all students. The course counsellor at the college where you enrol will have up-to-date information. There are four kinds of Flexible Learning Network subjects: TCE pre-tertiary subjects (all at TQA Level 3) other TCE subjects (TQA Levels 1 and 2) Flexible Learning specific courses (some at Level 1, others at Level 2 equivalent difficulty). This group of subjects do not provide credit points towards your TCE. study support subjects. Subjects vary according to their length. Please see the guide below for lengths and the amount of time you should set aside for courses.

A subjects

50 hours in course work (approximately 12 weeks) 6 hours per week of study time

B subjects

100 hours in course work (approximately 23 weeks) 8 hours per week of study time

C subjects

150 hours in course work (approximately one teaching year) 10 hours per week of study time

Is it okay to study two (or more) similar subjects?

You should not study the same (or very similar) subjects with different levels of difficulty at the same time.

How do I get my work and when do I need to get it back?

When re-enrolling, you should move from an easier subject to a harder subject, not vice versa. Some areas of study also have preparatory courses. These preparatory subjects cannot be done at the same time as the subject they prepare you for. This is made clear in the subject descriptions in the course guide.

Some Flexible Learning courses are available online. If not, you will be sent units of work by mail or email. As you finish each unit, you post or email it to your teacher for marking. Additional help is provided via telephone or email, if required. You are set deadlines for individual parts or units of each subject. If you have difficulty meeting these deadlines, discuss it with your subject teacher as soon as possible. If you fail to produce work on time, your enrolment in the subject may be cancelled.

Access
Having access to a telephone is very important as it allows you to speak with your teachers when you need help. As regular contact between teachers and students is critical to success in Flexible Learning, you should also have an active email account. If you wish to study languages, you must have a landline phone and an email account as mobile telephones cannot be used for language lessons. We will cover the cost of mailing things out to you; but you will need to cover the cost of your telephone calls and the postage on the return of work and materials.

Few subjects absolutely require you to have a computer; however, it is recommended that you have access to one. You may be able to arrange with your teacher to access computers at the college closest to where you live, or you may wish to use the facilities at your local LINC or Online Access Centre. If you are using the internet from home, you will need to pay the associated costs. A few subjects also have set texts, or require access to equipment such as a scientific calculator, a graphic calculator, a pedometer, specialised art equipment etc. You may be able to arrange to borrow some items from the library at the college which delivers the particular subject. Discuss this with your subject teacher. For more information about Flexible Learning, contact your local College.

Some regional and rural schools provide Year 11 and 12 education and training within their local communities. Full-time study at these schools, or a combination of the school and other education providers, may be available to ensure you can complete your studies without having to leave home.

Regional delivery options

Regional and rural schools currently offering Year 11 and 12 programs include: North City Campus Inveresk Deloraine High School Lilydale District School Port Dalrymple School Scottsdale High School St Helens District High School St Marys District School Winnaleah District High School North West King Island District High School Mountain Heights School Rosebery District High School Sheffield School Smithton High School South Dover District High School Glenora District High School Huonville High School Jordan River Learning Federation Senior School Campus Sorell School Tasman District School Contact details for these schools are located on page 126. In addition to face-to-face delivery, Flexible Learning options are also available through distance or online study.

Trade Training Centres

Trade Training Centres are designed to provide practical training to give you the skills you need to transition into employment or further education and training. Tasmania currently has six Trade Training Centres. These are located at Bridgewater, George Town, Scottsdale, St Helens/St Marys, Smithton, and Huonville. In 2012 work will commence on facilities in Sorell, Triabunna and Deloraine. It is likely that courses at these new centres will commence in 2013. Trade Training Centres are operated by schools in partnership with the Tasmanian Polytechnic and local business and industry in each of the regions to provide more vocational options in trades to Years 9-12 students as well as mature-age students from the wider community. The multi-trade facilities include industry-standard equipment and provide training in industry areas according to the specific needs of the local community. Courses include carpentry, construction, electrotechnology, metals, plumbing, cookery, aquaculture, horticulture and agriculture. Not all courses are offered in all locations. If you would like to know more about programs available in your area, contact your school or visit the Polytechnic website: www.polytechnic.tas.edu.au. Contact details for Trade Training Centres are located on page 126.

VET delivery through the Tasmanian eSchool

The Tasmanian eSchool provides a brokerage and coordination service to facilitate access to some VET courses primarily for post year 10 students in rural and remote government educational institutions. These courses are delivered through partnership arrangements between the relevant RTO (Registered Training Organisation) and a number of rural district high schools. Qualifications are issued by the relevant RTO. Courses provide students with practical hands on experiences and can lead to numerous vocational pathways. These courses comprise of study of both on and off the job units. Students will gain practical skills and experience that employers are looking for and obtain qualifications that are recognised throughout Australia. For more information contact see http://education.tas.edu.au/ tasmanianeschool/Pages/Programs2012.aspx#VET.

Australian School-based Apprenticeships The smart way to earn and learn.

An Australian School-based Apprenticeship is a great way to earn and learn, as you can start your career as a paid employee while still completing your education. As an approved School-based Apprentice you will study two or three TQA accredited subjects as well as a nationally recognised VET qualification that is undertaken on-the-job.

As an approved School-based Apprentice, you are guaranteed employment of eight to 15 hours a week during term time and longer hours in the school holidays, ensuring that you are completing half the work and half the training of a full-time apprentice or trainee. In all, you will work between 720 to 900 hours in a year. If you would like to know more about how you can become an Australian School-based Apprentice, please contact your local College or visit www.education.tas.gov.au/py10.

Get paid and get qualified, while you are still at school
Sam began his School-based Apprenticeship in Agriculture at the age of 15, combining work at Reids Farm with study at the Tasmanian Polytechnic. He got paid, got qualified and was still able to enjoy the rich campus life of school. I had always wanted to work in Agriculture; I love the peace and quiet of rural life the calmness of it. The property Sam worked on farmed irises and pepper quite unique products so there was never a typical day. Any day could involve a combination of picking flowers, drying and cleaning pepper to send to buyers, farm maintenance, driving the tractor I got such a lot of experience in all sorts of things. Sam attended the Tasmanian Polytechnics Hobart Campus two days a week, and in addition to Certificate II in Agriculture, also studied Certificate I in Engineering and Certificate I in Automotive.

His Polytechnic teacher assessed Sam on-the-job and Sam also attended training programs off-site to obtain skills, such as fencing, that he might not have got while working on the property. Sam wanted to leave school straight away and work full-time, however, his employer Chris convinced him to stay on and do a School-based Apprenticeship to get the benefits of both study and employment. Modern farming is complex involving the marketing of products, quality assurance, quarantine, record keeping and science and Sam just gets it. I think he has management potential one day. When asked to sum up his experience, Sam says, whenever anyone asks me about the benefits of taking on a School-based Apprenticeship I say do it!

If you have a specific career direction in mind, you will need to find the university that offers the best course to make it happen for you. That means you will need to know the specific ATAR and other entry requirements for your desired course. It is a good idea to have some back-up options. Your Pathway Planning Officer and staff at your local College can assist you in getting information about different universities and in planning your university pathways. The minimum entry requirements for the University of Tasmania (UTAS) are listed below: at least two years in Post Year 10 study for the TCE (or another approved senior secondary program) requiring enrolment in a combination of subjects designed for Years 11 and 12 a Satisfactory Achievement (SA) result or better in a minimum of four senior secondary pre-tertiary subjects (level 3 TQA subjects), chosen from the schedule of subjects approved by the UTAS attainment of a minimum of four subjects in not more than two (not necessarily consecutive) sittings.

University Entrance

The ATAR will be calculated from the Tertiary Entrance (TE) scores obtained in the two sittings, which satisfy the minimum entry requirements. Selection of Tasmanian Senior Secondary applicants for most courses will be based on the ATAR. The TE score is calculated by combining the scores of your best three senior secondary pretertiary subjects (from Years 12 or 13), together with the best score(s) of up to two other pre-tertiary subjects in that year or one other year. This score is then expressed as a percentile ATAR.

In Year 10, Claire was involved in the VEL program, Design your Future: A Career in Engineering. The mentoring component of this initiative was undertaken at Norske Skog where Claire saw first-hand what being an engineer at an industrial site involved. At the end of Year 10, Claire was awarded the high school medal for the most outstanding student for that year. She then went on to attend college for Years 11 and 12 and studied eight pre-tertiary subjects, with a maths/science focus. Gaining an ATAR score of 89.2, Claire received offers to study both Pharmacy and Engineering at the University of Tasmania in 2012, and is excited about her future prospects and the decisions she will make about her future career.

VET Pathways to University of Tasmania

Many VET Diploma and Advanced Diploma courses at the Tasmanian Polytechnic provide advanced standing in University of Tasmania (UTAS) degree courses. Where there is an articulation arrangement, you may receive generous credit towards your university degree on the basis of your Polytechnic study, and in some cases enter the degree at a higher year level. Other Polytechnic programs offer unspecified credit, which may be attributed towards a degree program. For example, students enrolled in the Diploma of Information Technology at the Polytechnic may elect to take a concurrent enrolment at UTAS in either the Bachelor of Information Systems or the Bachelor of Computing. At the end of four years study, they would then receive two qualifications. Likewise, students completing the Advanced Diploma of Hospitality Management or the Advanced Diploma of Tourism may elect to articulate directly through to the UTAS Bachelor of Business Administration, where block credit may be available for up to 14 units of the degree. There are many different articulation arrangements. For more details go to: www.utas.edu.au/centre-for-university-pathways-andpartnerships/double-advantage. As a Polytechnic student taking advantage of these articulation arrangements you will mix practical, work-ready skills offered through diploma study with the more theoretical perspective of university. As a UTAS student you will have access to a wide range of learning and support services, and will also have the added benefit of reducing your Higher Education Contribution Scheme (HECS). For information on HECS fees go to: www.goingtouni.gov.au.

The engineering program allowed me a real insight into the prospects of engineering as a career and is definitely an option for my future.

Year 11 and 12 gives you so many options for study, and opens up more opportunities for your future. It gives you so many different pathways and options, and even if you dont plan on going to university, having a TCE gives you a better chance of getting jobs.

Communication with parents

Parents are encouraged to be supportive partners in the education of their sons and daughters and are informed of College and Polytechnic activities in a variety of ways, including parent information evenings and newsletters. Subject reports are posted home twice a year. Parent-teacher meetings are held following the issuing of reports. These provide opportunities for parents to meet teachers and discuss how they can support their childs learning. Parents are encouraged to contact the College if they have any concerns.

Activities which enrich your learning

In Years 11 and 12, your learning is not confined to your subjects and programs. Colleges and the Polytechnic provide a range of other learning activities that enrich and support your development both as a student and as a citizen.

Book Lists

Information on book lists associated with each course can be obtained from individual Colleges.

Levies

Levies help to pay for classroom consumables, internet access, excursions, sport, magazines, diaries, and some library expenses. These fees cover basic materials needed in most subjects and programs, but students should note that some courses such as VET and other practical subjects may have additional charges for equipment. Part-time and flexible learning students are charged proportionally. At the time of printing this Guide the levies for 2013 have not been set. However, it is expected they will be in the vicinity of $320 for a full time student. You have the choice of either paying your levies up-front if book sales occur at your local College, or having an invoice sent to your parents or guardian. Arrangements can be made if you need to pay by instalments. Families on low incomes or grandparents raising grandchildren who are eligible for the Student Assistance Scheme (STAS) will not be required to pay the levy.

For assistance in determining your eligibility for STAS, you will need to contact the Corporate Service Centre, Department of Education on 1800 816 057 or by email: [email protected].
