NTCET is the NT Certificate of Education and Training which students receive once they graduate. It’s based on SACE which is the South Australia Certificate of Education.

Q: What is the NT School Curriculum?

Middle Year Curriculum is based on the Australian Curriculum . Students will be assessed with classroom assessments, NAPLAN for reading, writing and numeracy, and PAT testing for reading and mathematics.

Q: Where do I go on my first day?

Students will attend the front administration building on their first day where a Senior Teacher (generally their Year Level Coordinator) will provide them with a timetable and show them to their first class.

Q: Do I need an enrolment interview?

Year 6 students transitioning into Year 7 do not require an enrolment meeting as they will generally attend orientation days in the lead up to their first day of school. Students who are transferring to Katherine High School are required to have an enrolment meeting with their parents/guardian and Senior Teacher.

Q: What are the school hours?

Students attend their first lesson from 8:15am and finish their last lesson at 2:40pm. Recess is at 10:23am and lunch is at 1:01pm.

Q: How much do uniforms cost?

Students are required to wear a Katherine High School shirt and black shorts which can be purchased at Student Services in the Library. School shirt | $40 Shorts | $20
