SACE Subject Packages

SACE Subject Packages are packages of subjects designed to support students to complete SACE and commence a career pathway. The advantages of studying in this way include:

  • The learning and assessment in each subject supports the learning and assessment in the other subjects in the program
  • Working with the same group of students
  • Working with a small group of teachers who support student learning across all subjects in the program
  • Student learning is developed around their own strengths and interests

At Thebarton Senior College, we offer the following SACE Subject Packages (please click on the program name for more information):

Engineering and Construction Program

Games for SACE Program
This course provides students with the opportunity to achieve all Stage 1 SACE compulsory requirements in literacy, numeracy and Personal Learning Plan/Exploring Identities and Futures through engaging with and studying video games.
