Year 12 (Stage 2) Curriculum

Senior School at Walford is the training ground for life, with Year 12 representing a critical transition point in the journey toward young adulthood.

Welcome to Year 12, your final year of study at Walford.

With no compulsory curriculum requirements, you select subjects that align closely with your interests, forming the stepping stones to further learning and work.

Those who have an appetite to continue stretching themselves beyond the traditional bounds of the curriculum can apply for early university study which is accredited by SACE and attracts an Australian Tertiary Admittance Rank. By this stage of schooling, students have become highly attuned to our model of learning and assessment, taking a more autonomous approach to school life that reflects their maturity and independence.

This approach is complimented by a more flexible timetable, allowing you to arrive late in the morning or leave after lunch when lessons are not timetabled. Year 12 students additionally have exclusive access to a common area, providing a space which students can use to engage in independent study.

Students entering Year 12 receive outstanding guidance and the background needed to pursue their interests.
