I've just been wondering about the attendance for the HSC. This term, I've had to be away for about a week due to illness, while in the last two terms I had a lot of partial absences due to lateness. I've also missed some full days in the past few terms for various reasons. Now I'm worried since ppl say u need a minimum attendance to take the HSC, but idk what it is, so I'm really panicking right now. I checked my attendance on the records, and my overall attendance for Y12 is 87.9. Do you need a 90 and above to be eligible for the HSC? Please reply asap since I'm really worried about this!!!!

Im pretty sure it's up to ur principal
"While NESA does not stipulate attendance requirements, principals may determine that, as a result of absence, the course completion criteria may not be met. Clearly, absences will be regarded seriously by principals who must give students early warning of the consequences of such absences" - NESA website

my schools pretty strict, but it's 5 lates + 90% attendance, and resets every term. u get morning detention if you dont meet the required amount.

why would u be away for more than 15 days tho lmao, and yes they would have to ask you to repeat/kick you out since you dont meet the minimum hours for that subject if you miss that many days

smh cant even spell it right
their criteria is that if i shut up when someone is being rude to me, then I'm a good student. if i say something, suddenly I've murdered the queen, whilst shes in her grave.
