General information

The Western NSW Region Virtual Selective High School Provision, (xsel), connects students from across the region into a selective strand covering English, Mathematics and Science using sophisticated technology and personal contact to deliver the curriculum. Students are enrolled both in the selective school (xsel) and also in their local secondary (base) school; meaning that they can access a challenging academic program without leaving home and friends to do so.

Applicants applying for xsel are required to print out a Report of academic merit: virtual selective class provision and hand it to the primary school principal for comment. When completed this form should be sent to the selective High School and Opportunity Class placement Unit. The principal's comments are considered by the selection committee to assess whether the student is suitabkle for this type of learning situation.
