HSC Results 2020

Congratulations to Year 12 2020 studentson outstanding HSC results.

2020 was certainly a time of significant challenge, especially for those completing their HSC. We are incredibly proud of the way in which every SPCC student has shown courage during 2020 and risen to face the challenges that this year has brought.

On behalf of the St Philip’s Christian College Waratah community, I want to thank Year 12 students, staff and parents for the effort and commitment that has contributed to producing these results. Year 12 2020 is a wonderful group of young men and women, many of whom have completed their entire 13 years of schooling at St Philip’s Christian College. Whether they began their SPCC journey in Kindergarten or at other times since, each student has contributed something unique and valuable, for which we are grateful. It has been an absolute privilege to know them and be a part of their schooling journey.

The students of Year 12 2020 have achieved some outstanding overall results, with the College ranked 85th in the state and 100 Band 6’s being awarded across the year. 84.6% of all results were in the top three bands; a testament to the hard work and resilience of every student. Additionally, we are delighted that 94% of applicants received early round offers to university.

Seven SPCC students have been named as All Rounders, receiving Band 6 results in at least 10 units of courses studied. This is an exceptional achievement, and with two successful nominations for ArtExpress and Call Back, it is wonderful to see so many students performing highly in a range of specialisations.

Congratulations Year 12 2020 on your HSC achievements, and thank you for all you have contributed to the SPCC community. We wish you all the very best for the future, and look forward to hearing of your continued success beyond school.
