INTRODUCING JODIE ALAM - ASSISTANT PRINCIPAL, TRANSITION FOR RETENTION
The core goal of transition is to build strong, meaningful connections with incoming students, understanding them both as individuals and learners. Recognising challenges affecting student engagement is essential for success. By identifying each student’s unique goals and addressing potential obstacles, the Transition Team and course counsellors provide support to empower students to succeed in their approved learning pathways.
To support students in adjusting to their new classes, no course amendments were restricted during the first two weeks of school. This allowed students time to engage with their teachers, build connections with classmates, and explore the value of their classes. This also encouraged resilience and adaptability. Students are now allowed to make changes, and our course counsellors will be available at set times to provide guidance with this.
Please note, our 5-line enrolment policy applies to all Year 11 students, except those on an ATAR or VET pathway. This policy is designed to give students the best chance of achieving their TCE, with a 5-line enrolment in Year 11 supporting this goal. Students who wish to exit a VET class or drop a Level 3 course must select additional courses to replace the study line they would no longer be eligible for.
At Rosny and Beyond is a dedicated hub to support students in their chosen pathways. The hub is in Room 440 on Level 4.
For those interested in university, Mel and Suze are available to assist with specialised courses for both mainland and Tasmanian universities. Suze specialises in career guidance and is passionate about helping students choose subjects that align with their career goals.
Students pursuing pathways through TAFE or traineeships can seek support from Suze and Belinda. They can assist with resume writing, cover letters, TCE requirements, and course advice.
Belinda provides further support for students interested in apprenticeships or school-based apprenticeships (ASBAs).
Additionally, Mel can support students with organising study plans and preparing for exams.
We encourage students to make the most of these opportunities to ensure their success at Rosny and beyond. Book an appointment today!
High Achiever’s Program (HAP) is a two-year program run through home group that focuses on developing skills and capacities of students on a university pathway. Acceptance into this program is based on student results and attendance rate.

Mel Sanderson is the coordinator of HAP.
Our Student Association is seeking new members for 2025.
