Give yourself an advantage for SACE and university entry
Alexander Pushkin Russian School offers SACE Russian Continuers for senior secondary students wishing to gain SACE credits while further developing their Russian language skills.
Studying Russian in the senior years is an excellent opportunity to maintain bilingual proficiency while strengthening your SACE and ATAR.
Why choose SACE Russian?
- Gain valuable SACE credits towards your South Australian Certificate of Education.
- Results may contribute towards your ATAR.
- Highly-motivated students often find it to be one of their strongest Stage 2 subjects.
- Our accelerated SACE pathway (Stage 1 in Year 10 and Stage 2 in Year 11) gives students greater flexibility in Year 12. Many can choose to study fewer Stage 2 subjects while still meeting SACE requirements, allowing more time for university preparation, elite sport, work or other commitments.
- Develop advanced communication, literacy, analytical and intercultural skills that are highly valued by universities and employers.
- University Bonus Points
Students who successfully complete Stage 2 Russian (with a grade of C– or above) are eligible for 2 university bonus points under South Australia’s Universities Language, Literacy and Mathematics Bonus Scheme. These bonus points increase a student’s selection rank for university entry and may improve their chances of receiving an offer for their preferred course.
