Year 7 Enrichment Class 2025 Application Form
The educational experiences of students at Granville Boys High School will result in the development of young men who are independent and responsible learners and leaders. The school is committed to recognizing and catering to students' different learning styles.
The Enrichment class has been formed to address the needs of gifted and talented students in our region who are currently in Year 6.
The 2025 Enrichment class will be supported, through a specific curriculum designed to extend and challenge students. Entry to this class will be via a placement test designed to identify gifted and talented students and provide a baseline profile of student achievement.
The Enrichment class for 2025 is a school-based enrichment initiative and does not constitute entry to a government selective high school. We recommend students interested in selective placement sit both tests.
The placement test is produced and marked by the school. The test can provide information on the strengths of students in the areas of English, Mathematics and Writing. Students will need to bring pencils, eraser and ruler for the exam.
The duration of the placement test is approximately 2 hours, which includes rest breaks, and comprises the following subtests:
The test will be held on Tuesday 10 September 2024 in the Granville Boys High School Library. The test begins at 9.30am, however, students are expected to arrive at the school by 9am for registration and briefing.
