The Ministerial Senior Assessment and Tertiary Entrance Taskforce met recently, chaired by Education Minister Grace Grace.

Not surprisingly, the impacts of COVID-19 on the 2020 Senior cohort was high on the agenda with all sectors and all education agencies working together to ensure that the first group of Year 12 to graduate with the new QCE system are not adversely affected.

One of the positives of the pandemic experience has been the reinforcement of the close working ties right across the education sector in Queensland.
