Secondary schools must register all students who want to enrol in General (Senior External Examination (SEE)) subject/s before the closing date of Thursday 30 April 2026.
Fees and payment
Fee: $75.95 per subject
Schools collect the registration fee for each student. The QCAA will invoice schools after registrations have been received and processed.
If payment is not received by the date indicated on the invoice, the student’s enrolment in that subject will be cancelled.
Registrations received after 30 April 2026 will generally not be accepted; however, they may be granted if the following questions are explained by the principal/principal’s delegate:
- Is there sufficient time to fully engage in a General (SEE) syllabus that sets out the aims, objectives, learning experiences and assessment requirements for the subject to best prepare the student to sit the Senior External Examination (SEE) in October/November?
- Is there an unforeseen situation, which is beyond the student’s control and the school’s control, that stopped them from registering by the closing date?
- How is tuition being provided for the student?
If a late registration is accepted, the fee will be $124.12 per subject.
If you have any questions about this process, please email SEEregistration@qcaa.qld.edu.au.
