Dear Parents/Carers and Students
GENERAL INFORMATION
We are pleased to provide details of elective courses for students in Year 10 at Coffs Harbour High
School. This is an exciting time for students, who are able to choose one of their subjects.
Research conducted by the Department of Education around retention and engagement at school,
highlights the importance of electives and student choice in relation to satisfaction at school.
Students are encouraged to choose subjects which interest them and which may contain areas
of study and key skills in which they have shown ability. Elective subjects in Stage 5 may be an
opportunity to focus on subjects that students may think they will study in Years 11 and 12. While
there may be some advantage in the senior years to having studied courses in Years 9 and 10, the
courses are not a prerequisite for senior study and students should not feel “locked” into a
particular senior pathway while in Years 9 and 10. There are intellectual and emotional benefits for
students in choosing vocational and interest courses to gain variety and breadth in their education.
This booklet contains a summary of course information and we encourage all parents to read these
outlines with their children before deciding on their elective subjects.
NUMBER OF SUBJECTS
Students in Years 9 and 10 will study compulsory or CORE subjects and were able to choose three
ELECTIVE subjects in Year 9. Students going into Year 10 will have the opportunity to make a new
choice for one of their electives and will continue with the other two electives until the end of Year
10. This has been introduced to provide more choice for students in Year 10 and to encourage
them to pursue their strengths and interests. The electives that run for two years are 200-hour
courses and are a more detailed study of that subject. These two electives must be studied for
both Years 9 and 10. The third elective, studied in Year 9 only, and then replaced for Year 10 only,
is a 100-hour course.
If you require further information about the elective subjects, contact the teachers indicated for
each subject. Please contact the school on (02) 6652 3466 if you have any concerns.
Note: Any subject fees outlined in this booklet are anticipated costs and may be subject to
minor alterations in 2020.
If a student elects a subject that has a fee, it is expected that the student will pay the fee.
