ACADEMIC<br />

EXCELLENCE<br />

Across all year levels at<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>Cathedral</strong> <strong>College</strong>,<br />

students are challenged to<br />

perform to the best of their<br />

academic ability. We cater for<br />

a wide range of needs in our<br />

curriculum acknowledging<br />

the diverse talents of our<br />

students.<br />

Our school-wide Literacy<br />

Program seeks to boost<br />

our students’ capabilities<br />

in this vital learning area.<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>College</strong> offers courses<br />

which lead to university entry,<br />

traineeships, apprenticeships<br />

and the workforce.<br />

Middle School<br />

To assist in the transition from<br />

primary school, all classes in<br />

Years 8 and 9 have a Core<br />

Teacher who will teach them<br />

for three of their subjects. This<br />

provides the students with<br />

additional support to enable<br />

them to reach their potential.<br />

Students are exposed to a<br />

range of other subjects that<br />

may be studied in greater<br />

depth in the Senior School.<br />

Senior School<br />

Year 10 acts as the<br />

introduction to Senior<br />

Schooling with students able<br />

to choose elective courses<br />

that are <strong>com</strong>panions to those<br />

offered in Years 11 and 12. All<br />

Year 10 students are required<br />

to undertake work experience<br />

to assist in identifying their<br />

career direction.<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>College</strong> enjoys strong<br />

linkages with CQ University,<br />

TAFE, organisations<br />

and <strong>com</strong>panies that offer<br />

school‐based apprenticeships<br />

and traineeships to cater<br />

for the diversity of student<br />

abilities and preferences.<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>College</strong> seeks to support<br />

the gifted and talented while<br />

ensuring that those who<br />

struggle receive support in<br />

their learning. Tutoring is<br />

offered in many subjects by<br />

members of the <strong>com</strong>mitted<br />

and professional teaching staff.<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>Cathedral</strong> <strong>College</strong> offers a<br />

truly inclusive curriculum.<br />
