Early Commencement Program

Details
Our Early Commencement Program (ECP) for all students going into Years 8 to 12 in 2026 will begin on Monday 24th of November.
ECP is designed to give students a head-start on their 2026 studies, by finding out about course content, learning about the types of assessments within their chosen subjects and key dates for 2026. It is important student keep good attendance during ECP as coursework and information will not be revisited next year.
 
We are asking for your support to ensure your child is at school and attending all classes for the duration of early commencement. We strongly encourage families to make travel arrangements after the below dates, and as per usual processes, please provide an explanation if your child is absent from school for any period (absences can be entered through your family Compass portal or by calling the GSSC attendance line).
