Students within the Secondary School move from a common curriculum studied by all students at Years 7 to a core and elective model from Year 8. They have access to excellent shared resources such as computer laboratories, a modern library, superb sports grounds as well as specialist facilities such as the Food Technology kitchen, Art studios and Science laboratories. Interactive whiteboards, iPads and desktop computers enable them to access information from within and outside the School. Teaching teams with a variety of expertise work with Secondary School students as they take on more specialised courses of study.<\/p>\n
Student run activities are a hallmark of 91²Ö¿â Grammar. Secondary students are encouraged to take up leadership roles and to train younger students to develop their skills as well.<\/p>\n
These years are considered important formative years during which students are given the opportunity to study courses from a diverse range of subject areas. All students in Year 7 study a common group of subjects from a wide range of curriculum areas at this stage. From Year 8 students select from a range of electives.
\nThis diverse range of courses fulfills the needs of the majority of students; however, those who need extension beyond the basic outcomes are offered the opportunity to complete work that is suitably challenging.
\nThe School offers specific remedial classes within the current timetable for students that have been identified as needing extra assistance in Years 7 and 8.<\/p>\n
