Year 10
Mackay Christian College is commited to preparing all students for pathways after school, and implementing
new learning opportunities created by the new system of Senior Schooling that commenced in 2019.
Year 10 will be a significant start to this phase of learning with an emphasis on the types and styles of
learning that will be required to ensure success.
Students entering Senior School, wanting to pursue a university pathway, will need to ensure they qualify
for an ATAR to gain entrance to a university course. As part of this preparation, students in Year 10 are
given an opportunity to experience subjects that are closely aligned with Senior syllabuses to ensure that
students are well equipped to make good choices for Year 11 and 12. Due to the nature of the new system it
is very likely that subject changes throughout this learning phase will be very limited and therefore good
choices at the start are essential.
