URRBRAE PATHWAY COURSES

Each pathway is a grouping of subjects which best concentrates the possible learning for the senior student who wishes to pursue a possible career and further studies in the particular field.
To gain entry to the courses, students must have satisfactorily completed Year 10. Each pathway is a 2 year SACE accredited pattern and has recommended compulsory and elective units from the curriculum. Where possible National VET modules have been incorporated, resulting in the ability to achieve dual certification.  On successful completion, students are awarded an Urrbrae Certificate at a ceremony in March of the following year. Students should choose only one pathway course, over a two year period, comprising compulsory and elective subjects.
