HSC 2021
We are delighted to announce our 2021 HSC cohort and their achievements.
54% of the cohort achieved an ATAR of 90 or above, with three students all achieving a ATAR of 99.85. Our median ATAR was 90.65. The average ATAR in NSW was 70.40. 70% of our girls gained at least one Band 6 or E4 in a set of results that showed the strength of performance across the board.
We acknowledge that many students achieved results that reflect their commitment during anxious, uncertain times. Their median ATAR reflects the depth of motivation and application.
