Students who are in Year 12 may sit for each minimum standard test no more than 6 times (ie 6 reading test attempts in Year 12, 6 writing test attempts in Year 12 and 6 numeracy test attempts in Year 12).
All students reattempting a test in the same domain must wait at least 30 calendar days after their previous attempt at that test.
Students may not sit for a minimum standard reading, writing or numeracy test if they have already demonstrated the HSC minimum standard (ACSF Level 3) in that test domain, unless they are leaving school.
