BEHAVIOURAL EXPECTATIONS

Redlynch State College is committed to ensuring that all young Queenslanders have a

right to, and receive a quality education.

Redlynch State College creates a supportive school environment where all people feel

respected, safe and committed to learning. A positive learning environment is created

by building on quality relationships with students and parents. Our approach to

developing responsible behaviour is focused on these relationships and takes place in a

caring, supportive environment. We believe that self-control is necessary for children’s

welfare and happiness and their ability to function effectively in society. Students are

encouraged to manage their thinking and their behaviours and it is expected that they

develop self-discipline and take responsibility for their actions.

Our behavioural expectations are:

These behavioural expectations are embedded in the curriculum and expressed through

our learning outcomes. It is expected that all members of our school community will

consistently display our behavioural expectations in all actions. These behavioural

expectations are the foundation of our Responsible Behaviour Plan for Students.

SELECTING SUBJECTS

GUIDELINES

• Students are encouraged to discuss subject choices with teachers. College

staff have an understanding of your student and will be able to give them

guidance on the appropriateness of their subject choices.

• Students will be required to study two (3) elective subjects.

• Students will have many influences at this time of subject selection:- personal

likes/dislikes, career aspirations, expectations of family and others’, influence

of friends and media.

o The subjects you choose should include subjects which:

▪ You are interested in

▪ You have experienced past success with

▪ May lead to your preferred career path

▪ Optimist opportunities to reach your potential

• Make use of this booklet, which provides information about each elective

subject.

SELECTING SUBJECTS – SUBMITTING YOUR FINAL CHOICES

Final subject preferences are to be submitted online through OneSchool. The

OneSchool website is https://oslp.eq.edu.au and students are required to have their

school ID and password to access the site. A detailed information process with stepped

instructions for the submission of these online selections is outlined in the back of this

booklet.

SELECTING SUBJECTS – WHAT IF YOU CHANGE YOUR MIND?

While the online subject selection process is open, students may change their

preferences as many times as they like however, students need to be aware that the

time of the last online save is the primary data used for allocation to subjects. Once the

online process ‘closes’ the opportunity for change will be minimal. Please see the

detailed instructions at the back of this booklet for more information.

SELECTING SUBJECTS – CLAUSES

• Whilst every effort will be made to accommodate a student’s preferences,

scheduling and the availability of resources will mean that not every student

will be assigned for their first preferences. When a class/subject reaches

maximum capacity, no additional students can be enrolled into that

class/subject. Therefore, you will be required to select two additional

electives that you are prepared to study.

• Students also need to be aware that the availability of a particular subject for

an individual student is dependent upon a number of important factors:

o Time of submission of elective preferences or changes to preferences

o Selection process in specialist classes such as languages

o Acceptance into excellence and specialist programs

o Availability of staff and physical resources such as specialist classrooms

o Class size numbers

2. Student Exchange: routines and permission giving

3. I’m Lost: giving / receiving directions and place names

4. Sport’s Hero: personal skills, abilities and areas if interest

5. My Future: plans, dreams and careers

CORE SKILLS This is a period of language exploration, vocabulary expansion, and

experimentation with different modes of communication, for example, digital

media, collaborative performance and group discussions. Learners become

more confident in communicating in a wider range of contexts through greater

control of language structures and vocabulary and increased understanding of

the variability of language use. They use Japanese to communicate and

interact; to access and exchange information; to express feelings and opinions;

to participate in imaginative and creative experiences; and to create, interpret

and analyse a wider range of texts and experiences. They sequence and

describe events using a range of cohesive devices, and complete

communicative tasks that involve planning, performance, collaborative and

independent work. They use language more fluently, with a greater degree of

self-correction and repair, and use verbal cues to aid and facilitate

communication. They reference the accuracy of their language use against a

stronger frame of grammatical knowledge.

Learners at this level are able to read and write using hiragana, katakana and

an increasing number of kanji in all texts. Their writing is more sophisticated,

using connectives and conjunctions, and they engage with more complex

language structures.

some subjects are offered on multiple lines – but you may only study the subject

once.

3. Students should select 6 preferences:

• Three (3) first preference electives

• Three (3) second preference electives * There is a chance that students might end up studying a second preference subject, so all six elective

preferences must be carefully considered. Second preference subjects will be considered if it is not

possible to place students in their first preference.

Students wanting to study Certificate II in Engineering, Outdoor Recreation or the Athlete

Development Program are required to complete an application form and may have to

attend an interview. It is essential these students select a second preference in case they

a) Click ‘Select a Preference to add…’

b) Click your choice

c) Click ‘add new’

3. Click ‘Save’ and check for the successful update message (onscreen message

indicating that your subjects have been entered). Students need to be very aware

that re-entering subject preferences at any time up until close is possible, but by

editing preferences, the most recent time and date saved will be used as the time of

entry for subject allocation purposes.

ANSWERS TO FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Allocation to Subjects / Classes

• The time and date that selections were last saved will be used to place

students in subjects.

• If a subject is full, or classes collapse due to insufficient enrolments, students who

are not able to be placed in the subject will be placed in one of their second

preference subjects.

• Although second preference subjects are entered online one after the other,

these subjects will not be considered ordered for allocation purposes.

• Our priority is to place students in their first choice subjects. Preferences for

classes (groups of students) are not able to be considered. If students ever have

welfare or pathway concerns, they should book in with our guidance officer

through Student Services.

Changes to Subjects / Classes

• After online subject selections close, requests for subject change can be sent

by email to the College Deputy Principal, Sharyn Crookes ([email protected])

until the end of Week 8 in Semester 2, 2021.

Page 40: Curriculum GUIDE year 10 2022 - e Q

• Once Semester 1 commences, it may be necessary to move students between

classes to accommodate subject preference changes and new enrolments.

These changes will be kept to a minimum, and usually be concluded by the end

of Week 2. Communication of these moves will be the issuing of an updated

timetable to the student and the updating of the IDAttend online timetable.

• Extra classes may need to be created if there is demand and resources. Classes

may also need to collapse during the year.

• Students who apply for ADP or ORE but are not accepted – the alternative

subject chosen by the student listed in the online application will be the subject

they study.

IF YOU HAVE TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES WITH ONESCHOOL during the subject selection

online process (not difficulties with devices or connectivity):

Screenshot the problem / error message with the time and date visible, and email

this screenshot with an explanation to [email protected].

Continue to enter your selections as soon as possible once the issue is resolved.
