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 />
