Students in Year 12 will require the installation of a ‘locked down browser’ to complete Minimum Standards Testing. This browser is required to ensure the security and integrity of the testing platform. ALL STUDENTS IN YEAR 12 UNDERTAKING MINIMUM STANDARDS TESTING MUST HAVE THE LOCKED DOWN BROWSER INSTALLED ON THEIR LAPTOPS PRIOR TO UNDERTAKING THE TESTS
Year 12 students will need to be familiar with opening the Locked Down Browser before test days. If you have previously installed the locked down browser, installing the latest version will automatically upgrade your version.
