Senior Years
At Good Shepherd Lutheran College, we provide a holistic education that fosters academic excellence, student wellbeing, and personal growth. Whether students are preparing for tertiary studies or entering the workforce, we equip them with the skills and confidence needed for life beyond school. Our supportive staff work closely with each student to offer pathways that align with their individual goals.
In Year 10, students follow the Australian Curriculum while completing their first compulsory NTCET subject (Exploring Identities and Futures). In Year 11 and 12, they complete subjects with the goal of acquiring their Northern Territory Certificate of Education and Training (NTCET) by the end of Year 12. For students seeking a more practical, hands-on approach, we also offer Vocational Education and Training (VET) pathways.
