The Selective High
School Placement Profile Score is a mark out of 300. This mark is used
to rank candidates applying for selective high school placement. The mark is calculated
based on
school
assessment scores and Selective High School Placement test scores.
Schools provide school assessment scores
of English and Mathematics (out of 100) based generally on the student's performance
on the school's curriculum in Year 4 and up to the end of Year 5.
The test scores
are as follows:
|
Reading
|
out of 45

Writing

out of 20
|
|
Mathematics
|
out of 40

The minimum entry score for a selective high school is the test score of the lowest
scoring student to accept a place there. Selective High School Placement Test includes
English (including reading and writing), mathematics and general ability.
Please note that the geographical location
of the schools can affect the minimum entry score too.
Parents should not use minimum entry
scores as the only criteria to choose selective high schools. They should also consider
the curriculum offered of each school and transport.
