Year 7-10 Academic Pathways

Our Gifted and Talented program is designed to provide challenging and enriching educational opportunities for students who demonstrate exceptional academic abilities. The program aims to foster the development of gifted students by offering dynamic learning environments that challenge, inspire, and empower them to achieve excellence every day. Entry to the Gifted and Talented Program is only through specific Department of Education testing opportunities.

Comet Bay College offers academic Extension Programs in all year groups, to challenge high-achieving students at the A/B grade level within the curriculum. Extension programs provide opportunities for students to work with like-minded peers and focus on developing the academic rigour for their post-secondary education pathways.

Students achieving sound progress benefit from working with peers who are at a similar academic level, encouraging collaboration and mutual support, which enhances learning outcomes. Teaching and learning programs focus on achieving the core content of the relevant curriculum with additional support or challenges provided as appropriate to the needs of the class.
