Congratulations to the Patrician Brothers’ College Fairfield Class of 2025 on your Higher School Certificate (HSC) results!
The cohort delivered a strong overall performance, with 19 per cent of students achieving an ATAR above 85. The College also recorded 42 Distinguished Achievers, reflecting the hard work and dedication of students across all subjects.
Patrician Brothers’ College Fairfield Principal Peter Wade congratulated Year 12 on their fantastic effort and achievements.
“Notably, we achieved half the usual number of Band 1s and 2s, and 67 per cent of our courses were above the state average – results that truly reflect the hard work and dedication of our students across all subjects.
“I was genuinely impressed by the strength of this cohort. Their achievements in Business Studies, Studies of Religion, and Mathematics reflect both their commitment and the quality of teaching.
“What stood out most was the significant growth in Band 5 results, more than we’ve ever seen before, which has greatly reduced the tail and highlighted the overall academic progress of the group and the College.
“Beyond the numbers, what impresses me most is their collaborative spirit, determination to grow, and the way they’ve set a new benchmark for future year groups,” Mr Wade said.
