Class of 2018 Academic Results

Ipswich Girls’ Grammar School has provided the Class of 2018 with a holistic education, centred on academic excellence and balanced with purposeful involvement in community service, sports and the Arts. The 2018 Seniors have obtained commendable outcomes. Eighty-one percent of our students chose to be OP-eligible and 99% attained a Queensland Certificate of Education (QCE) qualification. The following table provides a summary of OP results compared with the State results:

Congratulations to the Academic Scholars for 2018: Claire Careless, Chani Dedduwa Jayatungage, Flynn Fordairs, Ella McBain, Nancy Phung and Tahlia Slater. The School will acknowledge the academic excellence of these young women, who attained either an OP1 or OP2, at the Scholars’ Assembly on Tuesday 29 January 2019.

Two students successfully completed university subjects whilst in Year 12. Students are well credentialed to transition to work if they so choose, in particular, the 14 Seniors who completed vocational studies at the Diploma level and the eight students who achieved a Certificate III in Early Childhood Education and Care.

At the heart of the success of every Year 12 student is the collaborative support and strong communication lines between the students, their parents, teachers and support staff.  This important and long-term partnership is foundational to individual success.

The 2018 Seniors have become successful learners, poised and creative individuals, and proactive and informed citizens. They have developed highly-valued personal qualities, acquired intellectual behaviours that enable them to live happy, fulfilling lives in a complex, rapidly changing world – a world to which they will contribute and shape with wisdom, confidence and optimism.  The School community is proud of these confident, well-educated young women. The 2018 Seniors are wished every success and happiness into the future.
