HSC 2005

Congratulations to all the students, teachers and school communities in Northern Sydney Region. Students from our public high schools have performed extremely well in this year’s Higher School Certificate.

It is not possible to draw conclusions about the quality of the development and learning experience at each school based on the limited information available on the HSC results – but our public schools appear have performed very favourably in the HSC compared to the fee-paying private schools in our Region.

Most of the statistics published in the newspapers from the HSC can be found at the Board of Studies web site I have downloaded the HSC All Rounders List from this site and placed it in excel files – one for the whole state and one for just the public schools in Northern Sydney. I have sorted these files by school, but you can readily search or sort in whatever way you wish.

Editorial 22 Dec 06

Great expectations and HSC high achievers

Worth a read. Says the key to success is great expectations. Mentions two successful comprehensives in Northern Sydney region, and raises the controversial issue of publishing a value-added index for all schools, public and private.

Comprehensives break up the select few 20.12.06

“Making significant headway is the non-selective (comprehensive) Killara High School, which jumped from 45th to 18th position.

Cherrybrook Technology High School, which is also non-selective, moved from outside the top 50 into 20th position”.
