The NSW Education Standards Authority (NESA) COVID-19 Response Committee has announced a number of changes to the 2021 HSC timetable to give students additional time to prepare for upcoming HSC exams and minimise the impacts of COVID-19 on students and schools.
In recognition of the evolving COVID-19 situation and in line with health advice, NESA has:
- Reschedule the Oral language exams to run from 14 August to 18 September for students in Greater Sydney and regional NSW.
- Reschedule the written exams to begin one week later on 19 October with HSC results out on 17 December.
Students’ personal exam timetables will be updated in Schools Online and Students Online by 12pm on 30 July.
