Crestwood High School

Stage 6 Subject Selection

A Message from the Principal...

I would like to take this opportunity to welcome students to Stage 6 at Crestwood High School. Years 11 and 12 give you the opportunity to focus on the study of subjects that interest you and prepare you for your future pathway.

So please consider your choices carefully. Take your time in looking through this website and reading the subject selection booklet below. Your next two years will be both exciting and challenging and we hope you make the most from them.

Please note that while we endeavour to meet all students' choices, not all classes are able to be placed into the timetable as classes must have a minimum size and available staff in order to run.

Enjoy your time and your learning.

Ms Tania Wright.

Courses on offer

Look through the courses carefully using the navigation banner. Consider the minimum requirements associated with each subject offered and talk to your parents and teachers with this in mind.

For Stage 6 it is fundamentally important to keep in mind NESA's advice:

Choice of which courses to study should be determined by only

your interests
your demonstrated abilities
and the value of the course for your future career.
