Student Survey, 2022

Strong Community

My child was supported to choose subjects they love at the end of Year 10. This careful subject selection has helped my child enjoy and be excited about their learning, even when things were hard. Teachers have always been extremely supportive. Our family is grateful to have our children attend Peace. Parent of a Year 12 Graduate, 2022

The graduating cohort of 2022 is a resilient group of young adults. Their learning has been impacted and disrupted by Covid several times during their senior years of school.

Despite this, our students have demonstrated time and time again they have personal resilience as they have coped with unexpected change and some missed milestones, such as their Year 12 camp, which was postponed due to Covid restrictions early in 2022.

The College is very proud of each Year 12 student in the graduating cohort of 2022. We have watched you grow and flourish, developing lifelong friendships along the way.

It was pleasing to see so many students serve the wider community through your volunteering at RosiesFriends on the Street. You have actively contributed to fundraising for Shave for a Cure, The Push Up Challenge, and the Australian Lutheran World Service. Thank you for your service to our community.

STRONG SUBJECT RESULTS

At Peace, learning is based on a strong and active partnership between a student, school and home. Teachers seek to support students in developing a love of learning and curiosity about their world. Teachers and students are lifelong learners; therefore, we recognise that subject results are only one measure of how much a student has learned throughout their journey as a student at Peace.

Strong subject results highlight the strength of our teaching and learning team, combined with pastoral care in supporting our students to not only survive Year 12 but thrive and flourish. Teachers at Peace care about our students and are invested in who they are, and who they are becoming. Our students receive excellent support from teachers early in their journey as students at Peace, which highlights why it is great to be a student attending a K-12 College.

BEYOND THE SCORES

At Peace, we recognise that each student has been on a lifelong journey of learning and growing. In addition to celebrating the achievements of those who have received high ATARs and additional qualifications, we acknowledge all students who have successfully completed Year 12.

The scores in this report do not reflect what we know about our students:

Some of you were the first in your family to graduate from Year 12

Some of you speak multiple languages and dialects, so learning and presenting your learning in Standard Australian English is an achievement and skill.

At times, when it was hard to come to school, you persevered and reconnected with the College community to receive support

Some of you are high-level athletes who have combined your academic study with rigorous training regimes outside of school hours

Some of you have had part-time employment during your study and we know you are highly valued and respected by your workplaces

Some of you have been actively involved with supporting disadvantaged people in the broader community through volunteering at Rosies - Friends on the Street and other organisations

Some of you are extremely talented with Art, Drama and Music, and you have developed pieces of work that would be suitable for professional portfolios

Some of you have been boarding students, studying away from your families. Thank you for allowing Peace to be your "home away from home".

We have been privileged to join you on your learning journey. Congratulations on developing significant life skills that will take you far into the future.

Peace Lutheran College is proud of all Year 12 graduates
