Selective Entry

Unlock your potential

Applying for a selective school

Imagine the change your child will go through in surroundings that support their academic ability. Selective schools give intellectually bright students the opportunity to flourish in an environment focused on outcomes. Surrounded with like-minded peers students are generally more driven to challenge themselves.

SEAL

The SEAL schools offer an accelerated pathway for their students. Students are accelerated through the curriculum and often complete some of their year 12 subjects during year 11. Further year 12 subjects are then undertaken. The test provider is usually either ACER or Edutest.

The test provider for year 9 entry into Melbourne High, MacRobertson' Girls, Nossal and Suzanne Cory is ACER. For entry to year 10 the provider remains to be Edutest.
