The Pathway Pillars
Senior Schooling at Calamvale Community College is constructed and delivered as a career-focused model to ensure that every student has the opportunity to choose a strength-based pathway that is right for them. We strongly believe in this approach and as such, subjects should be undertaken to support a pathway rather than define it.
The College offers five distinct pathways, which cater to the different strengths and interests of our students in a culturally diverse community. These pathways are:
- Certification
- Work Readiness
- International Baccalaureate Diploma
- Diploma of Business
- ATAR (Australian Tertiary Admission Rank)
All pathways differ in their timetabling, subject make-up, and in the co-curricular inclusions which enhance that pathway. More detail regarding each pathway is highlighted in the College's Senior Subject Handbook
The one element that is common to all pathways is that all will focus on students attaining their Queensland Certificate of Education (QCE), which requires a minimum of 20 total credits accrued through successful completion of subjects or vocational learning; 12 Core credits within that; and a Literacy and Numeracy tick.
More information regarding the QCE can be found here

AARAs (Access Arrangements & Reasonable Adjustments)
There are times when students need assistance to access their learning due to cognitive, physical, social/emotional or illness/misadventure reasons. When this has been verified through either the Head of Inclusion, Guidance Officers or Deputy Principal, AARAs can be put in place to support a student's learning.
All documentation required for this process through the College and QCAA can be found

All VET certificates are competency based. Data contributing towards competency will be collected throughout the duration of the courses by the process of collecting evidence and making judgements on a student’s demonstration and application of knowledge and skills to the standard of performance required in a work place. This process allows a student’s competency to be assessed in a holistic approach that integrates a range of competencies.
VET Certificates:
Students who achieve competency in all Units of Competency will receive the full certificate. Students who do not complete all Units of Competency will obtain a Statement of Attainment (for each certificate) outlining the Units of Competency successfully completed over the course of study.
The QCE is recognised within the Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF), and this may give advanced standing towards a traineeship or apprenticeship and/or credit on entry to higher level courses at TAFE institutes and other registered organisations.
