Year 12 Enrolments 2024

Your school has provided the School Curriculum and Standards Authority (the Authority) with your Year 12 course enrolments. You are able to check your enrolments to ensure that the information provided is accurate. Please click on the ‘Show more’ below for detailed information on how, when and why you need to do this exercise.

How do I check the information?

Please logon to the Student Portal at https://studentportal.scsa.wa.edu.au to check on your course enrolments. As you are aware, the student portal is a space for Year 12 students to check and access personal information that relates to their Western Australian Certificate of Education (WACE).

We will be collecting enrolments in Vocational Education and Training (VET) and endorsed programs later in the year. If you are studying these programs, they will probably not be listed at this stage.

What do I need to access the student portal?

To access the student portal, you need to have your WA student number (WASN), which you can find out through your school (it may also be on your SmartRider and on your school report). When you log in to the portal for the first time, you will be prompted to enter your personal email address and change your password. You will need to use your WASN and password each time you log in.

The first time you visit the student portal, you will be asked to provide a mobile number. While this is not compulsory, we encourage Year 12 students and examination candidates to provide a mobile number so that we can notify you via a group SMS if there are any changes to examination timetables and/or venues during the examination period. If you change your mobile number, you can edit this in the student portal.

You will need to visit the portal throughout the year to download various items (e.g. a copy of your Personalised written examination timetable) and to view your results. We will keep you posted via Facebook and our website, so you know when details become available. A complete list of what you will be able to download can be found in the Year 12 Information Handbook 2024, Part I: Information for all students, which is available on the Authority website at https://www.scsa.wa.edu.au/publications/year-12-information.

What is the Student Declaration and Permission, and why do I need to complete it?

When you log in to the student portal, you will be required to complete the Student Declaration and Permission before you can gain access to your enrolment information.

This is to ensure students are aware of the requirements:

to achieve the WACE
for sitting the Australian Tertiary Admission Rank (ATAR) course examinations.

It also enables you to give permission for the:

release of certain personal information should you receive an award (if you don’t give permission and you do receive an award, your name will not appear in any published recipient list)
use of schoolwork for creating support materials
use of examination responses (written and practical).

What do I do if the information in the student portal is incorrect?

If any of your information, including your personal details or enrolments is incorrect, you must let your school know so that they can update the information provided to the Authority.

When do I need to check my course enrolments by?

The last date for changes to enrolments for ATAR, General, Foundation, Preliminary and VET industry specific courses for Year 12 students is Thursday, 28 March 2024. We strongly recommend that you let your school know of any errors as soon as possible so they can inform us before the last date. After Thursday, 28 March 2024, our database will be locked, and no further enrolments will be accepted in the above courses.

Can I withdraw from courses after the last enrolment date?

Yes. You cannot enrol in a new course after 28 March 2024, but you can still withdraw from courses by the dates below.

For ATAR courses (Units 3 and 4) with practical examination components, the last date for withdrawal is Thursday, 18 July 2024.
For ATAR courses (Units 3 and 4) that do not have practical examination components, ATAR (Units 1 and 2), General, Foundation, Preliminary and VET industry specific courses, the last date for withdrawal is Monday, 5 August 2024.

Any changes to your current program of study should be discussed with your parents/guardian and school before a final decision is made to alter your program. It is recommended you also use the WACE Checker (see below).

What are the consequences of withdrawing from courses?

Withdrawing from units may mean you don’t complete enough units this year and may not meet the requirements to achieve a WACE. The WACE requirements are set out in the Year 12 Information Handbook 2024, Part I: Information for all students.

Am I on track to receive the WACE?

Once you are satisfied that your enrolment with the Authority is correct, you should use the WACE Checker to see how you are progressing towards meeting the requirements of the WACE.

What is the WACE Checker?

The WACE Checker is a tool Year 12 students can use to check on their progress towards meeting the requirements of the WACE. It is designed to determine whether you have met (or are expected to meet) each of the WACE requirements. You can save and/or download and print the report, and you can save the data entered in the checker for a month. When you select Save, you get an access code that will allow you to use the Fetch My Data button in the Checker. You can also save the summary of your input as a PDF and use this to track your progress and check the impact of any changes to your enrolments.

You will find the WACE Checker, and more information on how to use it, on the Authority website at https://wacechecker.scsa.wa.edu.au/.

What if I need help with the WACE Checker?

The Tell me more button provides support when using the WACE Checker. If you have any concerns about your progress towards meeting the requirements of the WACE after entering your information, you should follow up with the relevant staff at your school. They will be able to help you clarify any issues around your enrolments and achievements.

All the best with your studies.
