SACE Results

In reply to the Hon. S.L. GAME ().14 October 2025).

The Hon. E.S. BOURKE (Minister for Infrastructure and Transport, Minister for Autism): I have been advised:

The SACE Board does in fact release gender-disaggregated data, including for subject results, subject enrolment, and SACE completion rates. This information has been published annually since the introduction of the 'new' SACE in 2012 and remains publicly available. I note that a representative from your office contacted the SACE Board on 7 October to confirm the accuracy of this question, yet you did not wait for their response or check their website for the data.

Parents are able to access gender-disaggregated data on the SACE website.

The SACE Board acknowledges the gender gap in academic outcomes, recognising this as a complex and longstanding global issue that extends across all levels of education, with no simple or singular solution. The SACE is one of the most equitable and flexible senior secondary qualifications in Australia, enabling all students to demonstrate their learning through multiple pathways and achieve post-school success.
