Last updated:
Updated 02 Apr 2025
NESA has made changes to Rule 1.1.1. These changes outline:
- procedures for nominating eligible students for the RoSA (paragraph 8)
- procedures for schools with students who complete outstanding requirements for the RoSA in Stage 6 (paragraph 12)
- procedures for students going on overseas exchange (paragraph 20)
Section 94 of the Education Act 1990 (NSW) sets out the eligibility requirements for the award of the Record of School Achievement (RoSA).
About the RoSA
- The RoSA provides information on a student’s performance throughout Stage 5 and Stage 6, up to a student’s completion of HSC requirements.
- Mandatory curriculum requirements are listed on the RoSA under a separate heading with the annotation ‘Completed’.
- Students studying courses based on Life Skills outcomes and content in Stage 5 and/or Stage 6 may be eligible to receive a Loading at the time of leaving school with the RoSA or Transcript of Study, as applicable.
- Schools must nominate school-leavers for the RoSA by the due date outlined in the Loading .
- Students who leave school before the completion of Year 10 are not eligible for the RoSA or Transcript of Study.
- From the end of Year 10, students can access their cumulative results and the courses they are enrolled in by downloading their eRecord in Students Online. The Student eRecord is an interim report, not a formal credential.
