Meet the Marker HSC Analysis 2022 Series (Ref: 187/22)
Catholic Schools New South Wales is in partnership with the Science Teachers Association NSW for the “ Meet the Marker HSC Analysis 2022 Series”.
One of the most helpful and sought after types of professional learning for senior secondary teachers is participation in marking Higher School Certificate Examinations in their subject area. Unfortunately, that opportunity is not accessible to all teachers so the Science Teachers Association of NSW has designed a professional learning activity for those who cannot be involved in marking.
The “ Meet the Marker HSC Analysis 2022 Series” includes the Stage 6 Science course workshops for Biology, Chemistry, Earth & Environmental Science, Physics, Investigating and Extension Science. Each video is 2 hours in length and consists of HSC markers unpacking the results of the previous year’s HSC science exam questions and can be recorded as NESA Elective PD.
This has been a highly popular form of professional learning and places are limited.
Meet the Markers is also highly recommended for both early career teachers taking senior classes for the first time and experienced practitioners.

Foot and Mouth Disease - Animals in schools (Ref:183/22)
Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is a highly contagious animal disease that affects all cloven-hoofed animals including cattle, buffalo, sheep, goats, deer, pigs and camels. FMD can survive in frozen, chilled and freeze-dried foods including meat and dairy products.
It is not present in Australia. An outbreak would cause sickness in animals, and greatly impact Australian meat (beef, lamb and pork) and dairy farmers. There is no threat to human health from this disease.
Catholic Schools NSW is working with the other school sectors and the NSW Department of Primary Industry (DPI) to raise awareness and assist DPI if there is an incursion of FMD into NSW.
All schools that have animals should ensure they:
- complete and retain the 2022/23 Animal Research Authority: 2022-23-Animal-Research-Authority-Catholic Schools New South Wales-Signed
- maintain accurate animal care records
- ensure key information is accessible to Principal, KLA Coordinator, Farm Assistant, and other key personnel.
- never feed food scraps to pigs or ruminant animals
- develop and maintain a biosecurity plan https://nswschoolanimals.com/index/biosecurity/
- know who the local veterinarian is and their contact details.
The National Livestock Identification System (NLIS) is Australia’s system for the identification and traceability of cattle, sheep and goats. Similarly, PigPass is the national tracking system which provides real time information on the movements of all pigs in Australia. These systems enable authorities to quickly determine the source of a disease outbreak and notify people in the affected area to stop the spread of disease
Actions for schools include:
- ensure all sheep, cattle, goats are NLIS tagged
- ensure all transfers of these animals are up to date on the NLIS database
- ensure all pigs are registered with PigPass and their movements reported
- be vigilant and know what the signs of disease are.
Catholic Schools NSW will contain Diocesan Offices and RI/MPJP schools if additional information is required by the DPI.
Further information on FMD is available using the following links:
