  8. OVERVIEW OF STRANDS IN STAGE 5 PATHWAY FOR STAGE 5 • Stage 5.1- Designed to meet the needs of students who achieved stage 4 during Year 9 or 10. • Stage 5.2- This stage builds on and includes stage 5.1 content. This was designed for students who have achieved stage 4 by the end of Year 8 or early in Year 9. • Stage 5.3- Includes the content of both 5.1 and 5.2 and is designed for students who achieved Stage 4 outcomes before Year 8. 11390691 Peta Evans
