Year 11 & 12 Curriculum2025-02-05T11:03:00+10:00

Redlands College is intentional about providing learning opportunities to support the diverse range of pathways our students will follow once they graduate from school. The College offers a large range of QCAA General and Essential Subjects, as well as a range of vocational certificates taught on site by our trainers through the College’s own RTO. In addition, we partner with several private RTOs to offer access to a broad range of vocational certificates and diplomas on campus, online and via holiday programs.

Our pathways are designed to provide our students with the ‘key’ to unlock the doors to future work and study that will follow graduation and include as a foundational component the completion of the Queensland Certificate of Education (QCE) – the QCAA’s official certification that a student has met the requirements of their senior school education. More information on the QCE can be found in the “Year 11 & 12 Pathways and Subject Information Booklet” available at the bottom of this page. The ‘Uni Ready’, ‘Work Ready’ and ‘Customised’ Pathways, shown below, all build upon the foundation of the QCE and are designed around providing the key to gain access to the next steps after graduation from school.
