English+Standard

=Welcome to Standard English=

.

At Bankstown TAFE the Standard English you are studying includes both Year 11 and Year 12 requirements for the HSC. You must complete the designated Year 11 tasks to satisfy the Year 11 requirements. Students who wish to do Advanced English will be confirmed in this class only after successful completion of the assessments for Area of Study. To ensure all students are in the class best suited to their ability, those students who achieved Band 4 and above will be considered for the Advanced Class.

If you need help in English we recommend that you take full advantage of TAFE's tutoring service provided by the Individual Learning Centre.
