Centres of Excellence - Japanese Stage 6
Committed to Education
The Japanese Centre of Excellence (JCoE) was established in 2019 by Sydney Catholic Schools to ensure that the opportunity for all students of Sydney Catholic schools to study Japanese language is available to them.
Each year schools offer a wide range of subjects for students to choose as their electives in Stage 6. From year to year individual schools can struggle to run certain elective courses due to the level of interest shown by their students in the subject selection process. In 2023 the JCoE aims to enrol students from across Sydney Catholic Schools who wish to study the Japanese language stage 6 Japanese Beginners course.
