Class of 2025 Results

Congratulations to our students on their awesome achievements!

We’re incredibly proud to celebrate the outstanding 2025 academic results of our students. Their dedication, persistence and commitment to learning have delivered an impressive median ATAR of 86.15, with one of our students achieving a remarkable top score of 99.15.

The grit and determination shown across the cohort have led to some fantastic outcomes, highlighted in the following statistics:

Key highlights include:

• Subject Exhibition Award: One student achieved the highest examination mark of their Year 12 ATAR subject for Human Biology
• VET Exhibition Award: One student was recognised as the top performer in Tourism, Hospitality and Events.
• Subject Certificates of Excellence: One student ranked in the top 0.5% of their subject for Human Biology.

• Certificates of Distinction and Merit: A combined total of 34 students earned these prestigious accolades. Four students received Certificates of Distinction, and 30 received Certificates of Merit.

Our varied educational pathways have demonstrated remarkable success in supporting students' post-school goals in 2025. Out of our 178 Year 12 students, 130 students successfully pursued a variety of entry pathways to university:

• 82 students achieved a traditional ATAR
• 57 students completed the UniReady Program

These pathways ensure that students have multiple opportunities to access higher education, reflecting our commitment to providing flexible and inclusive educational routes. The UniReady Program, in particular, offers students an alternative to traditional ATAR entry, providing a pathway that develops academic skills and offers a notional ATAR of 70 upon completion.

The number of Workplace Learning hours for the Year 12 cohort completed in 2025 was an amazing 2198 hours. To add to this cohort’s achievements, they also completed over 50 VET qualifications in Year 11 and an additional 4178 Workplace learning hours as part of their VET and workplace learning pathways.

Our programs continue to grow each year, and this year was no exception. By offering diverse programs like these, we empower students to achieve their academic and career aspirations through personalised learning experiences.

Our sincere appreciation goes to the staff members and families who supported, mentored, and encouraged our Year 12 students throughout their educational journeys, helping them become their best selves.

No matter which pathway our students have taken, we are incredibly proud of them all and can't wait to see them make their positive mark on the world. On behalf of the St Mark’s community, we congratulate the entire Class of 2025 on their hard work and resilience and thank them for their wonderful contribution to our School and beyond.
