Outstanding results in the HSC
Each year at St Mary’s we celebrate the achievement of our girls’ HSC results. These results are a combination of the hard work of the girls, their parents and teachers. St Mary’s Year 12 students of 2022 can be very proud of their results. While St Mary’s is proud of its performance at the top end it is often student growth and learning gain that tell you more about a school. It is particularly pleasing to note that overall students achieved success, with over 81% of all results being recorded as either Band 6s, Band 5s and Band 4s. St Mary’s continues to focus on ensuring that students are adequately prepared for HSC success.
