BOSTES Sydney Morning Herald HSC Study Guide 2014

Every year the Board of Studies, Teaching and Educational Standards (BOSTES) works with Fairfax Media to publish the Sydney Morning Herald (SMH) HSC Study Guide that is relevant to the needs of HSC students, teachers and parents.

This year the Guide will be available in print and digital format. The print version appears in the Monday 16 June edition of the SMH and digital copy on the SMH website

Year 12 students will receive an email from 6pm Monday 16 June containing a link to the digital version. Year 11 students will receive an email with the link from 6pm on Tuesday 17 June.

Schools are asked to remind students to check their email so they can access the digital version of the Guide.

The move to digital has allowed for inclusion of a greater range of resources such as:

  • Videos of teachers answering HSC type questions
  • HSC test yourself quizzes
  • Links to relevant BOSTES endorsed resources
  • Videos with comments from 2013 First In Course recipients.

Following the move to a digital version with its enhanced resources, Fairfax will no longer print additional copies which were previously sent to schools

In addition to the feedback opportunities included in the digital version of the Guide, BOSTES welcomes direct feedback on the 2014 Study Guide to help us plan the 2015 edition.
