Exclusive: The back-to-school plan has created an unfair system for this year's HSC, with educators warning students at private schools will have twice as much face-to-face learning in term two as their public school counterparts.

The NSW government's back-to-school plan has created an unfair system for this year's HSC, with educators warning students at private schools will have twice as much face-to-face learning in term two as their public school counterparts., the NSW Education Standards Authority confirmed on Friday, with the timetable to be confirmed in mid-May and the results to be released in mid-December.

One source close to HSC planning said the differing amount of face-to-face teaching over term two raised a "real issue about the credibility of the HSC. Students will put in for misadventure and their misadventure is that they attend a government school."urged her peers to write to Ms Berejiklian and complain. "Well this isn't fair," wrote another. "Not that I wanted to go to school but it gives private students an advantage.

But public school principals were already working to maximise class time for year 12, he said, while still adhering to government directions to bring back all students for one day a week.

Government should redirect private school subsidies towards improving the public system.

Oh wow!🤯

But isn’t that the point of private schools? You pay for a better education (supposedly)?

Maintaining the status quo.

But I understand the president of the NSW Teachers Federation, AGavrielatos doesn’t want anyone to return to school. Rather than oppose everything the government says how about he confirm he supports all children returning to school and stop the nonsense games.

If you have followed the way NESA and its board have acted to do with CVD and the HSC via the mere snippets of information drip fed to their website, you would conclude they are inept. I wonder if their meetings are properly minuted and justification for decisions documented.

Video learning can be as effective as youngsters are used to interact via internet. Face to face only necessary for practical work. Though simulation can be an alternative.

The system has never been fair. They make students from optimal learning environments compete in academic competition with those from disadvantaged homes and schools on the basis of their DOB. Children should progress at a pace and level that is suitable to them not the DET.
