Eligibility for the Record of School Achievement for students who were ineligible at the end of Year 10

ACE 5001

Last Updated: 29 March 2019

A principal with appropriate delegation by NESA may determine that a student undertaking Stage 6 courses who was ineligible for the Record of School Achievement (RoSA) at the end of Year 10 because of failure to meet the requirements has subsequently met the requirements and is therefore eligible for the RoSA. The principal is required to notify NESA of any such redemption and eligibility for the RoSA.
