It provides students with the mathematical knowledge, skills and understanding to solve problems in real contexts for a range of workplace, personal, further learning and community settings. This course provides the opportunity to prepare for post-school options of employment and further training.
About the course
This course focuses on the use of mathematics to solve problems in contexts that involve financial modelling, geometric and trigonometric analysis, graphical and network analysis, and growth and decay in sequences. It also provides opportunities for students to develop systematic strategies based on the statistical investigation process for answering statistical questions that involve analysing univariate and bivariate data, including time series data. The Mathematics Applications ATAR course is designed for students who want to extend their mathematical skills beyond Year 10 level, but whose future studies or employment pathways do not require knowledge of calculus. The course is designed for students who have a wide range of educational and employment aspirations, including continuing their studies at university or TAFE.

About the course
This course focuses on the use of calculus and statistical analysis. The study of calculus provides a basis for understanding rates of change in the physical world, and includes the use of functions, their derivatives and integrals, in modelling physical processes. The study of statistics develops students’ ability to describe and analyse phenomena that involve uncertainty and variation.
Mathematics Methods provides a foundation for further studies in disciplines in which mathematics and statistics have important roles. IT is also advantageous for further studies in the health and social sciences. In summary, this course is designed for students whose future pathways may involve mathematics and statistics and their applications in a range of disciplines at the tertiary level.

About the course
The Chemistry General course provides students with the opportunity to develop their understanding of the chemistry of materials encountered in their lives and in everyday chemical reactions. Students apply chemical language by using symbols and formulae for common substances as well as exploring the role of chemistry in contributing to a sustainable future, and in assisting in the protection of the natural environment. An appreciation of the experimental nature of chemistry is developed through laboratory activities.

About the course
Unit one focuses on how human health and lifestyle diseases are heavily influenced by our choices about diet, nutrition and exercise.
Unit two focuses on the importance of regular health checks to prevent or manage medical problems.
These are ideal units for those students wishing to go into training to study health sciences, for example nursing, aged care or dental technician. The areas you will cover include the circulatory, respiratory and urinary systems and the role of medical technology for issues along this journey.

About the course
The Chemistry ATAR course equips students with the knowledge, understanding and opportunity to investigate properties and reactions of materials. Theories and models are used to describe, explain and make predictions about chemical systems, structures and properties. Students recognise hazards and make informed, balanced decisions about chemical use and sustainable resource management. Investigations and laboratory activities develop an appreciation of the need for precision, critical analysis and informed decision making.

About the course
The UniPrep Schools Program (UniPrep) is an alternate entry to university pathway run by Edith Cowan University (ECU). CJSC and ECU have entered into a partnership that allows us to deliver the UniPrep to Year 12 students at CJSC.
Successful completion of UniPrep allows students to apply for undergraduate courses with Academic Admission Band 3 (at the discretion of ECU Admissions). UniPrep will provide students with a notional ATAR of 70 and English competency.
UniPrep has been approved as an Endorsed Program by SCSA. This means it will contribute to a student’s WACE.
Students complete four (4) units. Each unit is equivalent to a one semester Endorsed unit. Students will complete two units in Semester 1, and two units in Semester 2
