Your child is working towards their final two years at high school and choosing appropriate subjects with them can be overwhelming. This section is to help give parents and carers some essential information about the Senior Education and Training Plan and the processes involved in selecting students' subjects linked to their career goals.

The 2021 – 2022 Subject Handbook has a lot of information in it. Please read through the general pages before moving to the subjects on offer at Pimlico. General subject and some applied subjects have pre-requisites and recommendations. Students have been using the handbook in their careers classes in HPE and are aware of these requirements prior to being allowed to study them. If students have not met the requirements at the end of Semester 1, they can still meet them at the end of Semester 2. Students can then apply to enrol in the subjects via the Guidance Officers.
