SCSA grants Year 12 exhibitions and awards in recognition of academic excellence. The media publishes names of the award winners in early January.

Exhibitions and awards include:

• Beazley Medal: Tertiary Entrance - Awarded to the highest ranked eligible WACE student with a General Exhibition, • Beazley Medal: VET (Excellence in Vocational Studies) – Awarded to the eligible student who has demonstrated the best results in a vocational programme, • General Exhibitions to the forty eligible students who obtain the highest Schools Curriculum and

Standards Authority Award Scores, and • Subject Exhibitions, Certificates of Distinction and Certificate of Excellence/ Commendation (awarded to both ATAR Pathway and GENERAL Pathway).

The nomenclature of courses follows a standardised format. Year 11 courses are written with the stem of AE or GE meaning ATAR Year 11 or General Year 11, followed by a three-letter course code. For example, AEENG refers to ATAR Year 11 English. GEENG refers to General Year 11 English. Similarly, the codes in Year 12 indicate Year 12 with either an AT or GT. For example, ATENG for ATAR Year 12 English or GETENG for General Year 12 English.

The three-letter course codes are referenced in the titles of the following course descriptions.
