International Competitions and Assessments for Schools (ICAS)

Some students in Years 3 to 6 have elected to undertake some or all of the 2017 ICAS Competitions. These international competitions are administered to provide students an opportunity to compete at a high level in their fields of interest. 

Results are awarded according to the following scale:

High Distinction Certificate         the top 1% of participants

Distinction Certificate                  the next 10% of participants

Credit Certificate                         the next 25% of participants

Merit Certificate                           the next 10% of participants
