    Success in the HSC (and beyond) starts with key behaviours!
At HSC CoWorks, we know that academic success is all about building the right habits and behaviours. That’s why we coach our students to embrace these six key behaviours that drive results, including:
✅ Planning Ahead – No last-minute cramming, just consistent effort.
✅ Training Consistently – Just like an athlete, success comes from practice.
✅ Seeking and Using Feedback – Growth happens when we embrace feedback.
✅ Pushing Through Challenges – Discomfort = progress!
✅ Taking Ownership – The HSC is in your hands.
These aren’t just study habits; they’re life skills. The students who succeed in the HSC (and beyond) aren’t necessarily the smartest—they’re the ones who commit to these behaviours every day.

    THE SIX KEY BEHAVIOURS FOR HSC SUCCESS

    The HSC CoWorks program is about so much more than subject specific support.

    We work with students across Year 11 and 12 to develop six Student Key Behaviours which will allow them to overcome every HSC challenge which comes their way. These Key Behaviours cover motivation, organisation, consistency of effort, leaving the comfort zone, being resilient and taking responsibility. 

    As we always say at HSC CoWorks, “If the Key Behaviours are in place, everything else will take care of itself”.

    You will note that these key behaviours are not specific to the HSC and your child’s adoption of these will ensure that they are better prepared to conquer the mountains of life after school has finished (Mount Uni, Mount Career, Mount Life).

    engage your vision
    mountHSC-plain

    If a student is energised and committed to achieving their goals, they will have the resolve and self discipline to work on the tasks that count (well intentioned AND effective tasks).

    Through regular planning and getting proactive around being prepared for what lies ahead students will take appropriate action well ahead of time. If you fail to plan, you plan to fail!

    Students ‘training’ consistently, will be much more prepared for the exam room. Completing ‘notes’ & ‘homework’ does not qualify as ‘training’ as there is very little struggle involved.

    Without struggle, there is no progress! If you are completing the same easy tasks over and over, you will not get any better at a given subject, in the same way that if you keep doing the same exercises at the gym without increasing the weight or reps, you won’t get any stronger or fitter.

    No one likes to leave their comfort zone, but it’s the only way to improve.

    It is inevitable that you will encounter obstacles over year 11 and 12 and have at least one result which you’re upset about. The most important thing to remember is that one mark won’t change your ATAR – it is the response to the setback that is most important.

    Displaying grit will allow you to use setbacks as a chance to learn and grow.

    There is only one person who can make your HSC vision into a HSC reality and that is of course you! 

    The students who achieve the best results take initiative and responsibility for achieving their goals by applying all of the key behaviours, rather than relying on others to get them over the line and making excuses when it doesn’t happen.
