Parent's handbook

WA schools: a parent's guide

How school works in Western Australia, from NAPLAN to the WACE, and when tutoring helps most.

Get matched with a tutor
Chapter 01

How the WACE and ATAR work

The WACE is the Western Australian Certificate of Education, set by the School Curriculum and Standards Authority (SCSA). Students earn it across Years 11 and 12 by completing enough courses at the required grades and showing a minimum standard of literacy and numeracy, either through Year 9 NAPLAN or the OLNA.

In each ATAR course, the school mark and the SCSA exam mark are combined equally after moderation, so both count. TISC then scales each course result and calculates the ATAR from a student’s best four scaled scores. General courses are school-assessed and do not count toward an ATAR.

SCSA
Sets courses, exams and the WACE rules
TISC
Calculates the ATAR for WA universities
OLNA
The literacy and numeracy check if NAPLAN did not prequalify
Chapter 02

Key dates in the WA school year

WA schools run four terms. NAPLAN is sat in March in Years 3, 5, 7 and 9, and results are reported in four levels: Exceeding, Strong, Developing and Needs additional support. That gives a clear read on where your child sits against the national standard.

  1. Term 1NAPLAN in March and the first OLNA window
  2. Term 2Semester 1 exams for many Year 11 and 12 students
  3. Term 3The second OLNA window and Year 10 course selections
  4. Term 4WACE ATAR written exams from late October
Chapter 03

Choosing Year 11 and 12 courses

Year 10 is when students choose an ATAR pathway, aimed at university, or a General pathway, aimed at TAFE, training or work. Many schools use Year 10 maths and English results to set entry to harder courses, so those grades matter more than families expect. Check university prerequisites before locking anything in.

Mathematics Essential
General course, everyday maths
Mathematics Applications
ATAR course, statistics, networks and finance
Mathematics Methods
ATAR course, calculus and functions
Mathematics Specialist
ATAR course, taken alongside Methods
Chapter 04

When do families usually start?

Most families start when a subject begins to feel hard, rather than the week before a test. In primary school that is often reading, spelling or times tables. In high school it is usually Year 7, when algebra and essay writing arrive, or Year 10, before senior course choices.

In Year 12 the weeks have a pattern. Terms 1 to 3 are about keeping every response task and test strong, since the school mark counts as much as the exam. From Term 3, lessons move to past SCSA papers under exam timing, with short, focused review in the final weeks before the exams.

Curriculum guide

WA schools, year by year

What students in Western Australia learn at every year level, and how a tutor helps.

Get matched with a tutor

Pre-primary to Year 2

The Western Australian Curriculum starts with letter sounds and counting, then builds early reading, sentences, place value and adding by Year 2.

Pre-primary to Year 2

  • Letter sounds
  • Early reading
  • Counting and place value
  • Adding and subtracting
Worked example

Count on to find 38 + 5.

Answer43

How a tutor helps

Secures number facts and sounds early, when they are far easier to build than to repair later.

Based on the SCSA Western Australian Curriculum: English and Mathematics, early years to Year 2.

Years 3 to 6

Years 3 to 6 build comprehension, spelling and planned writing, plus times tables, fractions and decimals. NAPLAN is sat in Years 3 and 5.

Years 3 to 6

  • Reading comprehension
  • Persuasive writing
  • Times tables
  • Fractions and decimals
Sample persuasive opener

Every school should have a vegetable garden, because students who grow food learn science, patience and teamwork in one place.

How a tutor helps

Builds paragraph skills and number facts before Year 7, while the stakes are low.

Based on the SCSA Western Australian Curriculum: English and Mathematics, Years 3 to 6.

Years 7 and 8

Lower secondary maths moves into integers, index laws and linear equations, while English builds analytical and persuasive paragraphs. NAPLAN is sat in Year 7.

Years 7 and 8

  • Integers and index laws
  • Linear equations
  • Analytical paragraphs
  • Persuasive writing
Worked example

Simplify 4(2x + 3) − 5x.

Answer3x + 12

How a tutor helps

Explains each step of working clearly, so your child can tackle new problems instead of relying on memory.

Based on the SCSA Western Australian Curriculum: Mathematics and English, Years 7 and 8.

Years 9 and 10

Years 9 and 10 cover analytical essays, quadratics and trigonometry. Students who did not prequalify through Year 9 NAPLAN sit the OLNA from Year 10.

Years 9 and 10

  • Analytical essays
  • Quadratics and trigonometry
  • OLNA reading and numeracy
  • Choosing ATAR or General courses
Model analysis

The writer shortens each sentence as the storm closes in, so the reader's pace quickens with the character's panic.

How a tutor helps

Strengthens essays and algebra before Year 11, and prepares for the OLNA if your child still needs it.

Based on the SCSA Western Australian Curriculum, Years 9 and 10; SCSA OLNA.

Years 11 and 12 (WACE)

WACE students take ATAR or General courses, such as English and Mathematics Methods. ATAR courses end in SCSA exams, which count toward the ATAR.

Years 11 and 12 (WACE)

  • ATAR English
  • Mathematics Applications and Methods
  • School assessments
  • Past ATAR papers
Worked example

Find the gradient of y = x3 − 2x at x = 2.

Answer10

How a tutor helps

Works through response tasks and past ATAR papers under exam timing.

Based on the SCSA WACE Manual 2026; SCSA ATAR course syllabuses.
