Year 9 (2024) / Year 10 (2024) Subject Selection

The Curriculum in Years 9 and 10 comprises some subjects that all students must study as well as a variety of subjects where students are able to choose. Students in Year 9 can select three subjects from the list below. In Year 10, students must study mandatory Australian History and Australian Geography which means they will only be able to carry two of their electives through into Year 10.

There are some exclusions in selection. These are:

• If a language is selected, it must be the language the student studied in Year 8

• If a student selects either Elective History or Elective Geography in Year 9, they are unable to study this in Year 10. They must study both the mandatory Australian History and Australian Geography. For this reason, students may not choose both Elective History and Elective Geography in Year 9.

• New Electives CANNOT be selected in Year 10. Only ONE elective can be dropped in Year 10. Two or three electives CANNOT be dropped and another two or three selected.
