The HSC Minimum Standard
Students need reading, writing and numeracy for everyday life after school. This is why students in NSW are being supported to meet a minimum standard of literacy and numeracy to receive the HSC from 2020.
To show our students meet the HSC minimum standard, they need to achieve Level 3 or 4 in short online reading, writing and numeracy tests of skills for everyday life.
Together with the NSW Literacy and Numeracy Strategy, the HSC minimum standard is part of an effort to improve the literacy and numeracy outcomes for students.
