Educational Standards
RLC is generally a high-achieving school, with most senior school-leavers scoring strongly in the Overall Position (OP) score. In 2008, 9 students received an OP 1. RLC is also opening up the options available to students, adding TAFE courses and apprenticeships to its curriculum.. The ethos of the school, however, is on participation rather than a striving for excellence, in both academic and co-curricular activities..

Famous quotes containing the words educational and/or standards:
“Class is rarely talked about in the United States; nowhere is there a more intense silence about the reality of class differences than in educational settings.”
—bell hooks (b. c. 1955)
“Chief among our gains must be reckoned this possibility of choice, the recognition of many possible ways of life, where other civilizations have recognized only one. Where other civilizations give a satisfactory outlet to only one temperamental type, be he mystic or soldier, business man or artist, a civilization in which there are many standards offers a possibility of satisfactory adjustment to individuals of many different temperamental types, of diverse gifts and varying interests.”
—Margaret Mead (19011978)
