As just over 75,000 students in NSW sit their first Higher School Certificate exam on Thursday, the role of the ATAR – the Australian Tertiary Admission Rank – is again under the spotlight. And so it should be.

As the determinant of university entry for school leavers, the ATAR has outlived its purpose. It is, in essence, unfair and creates far too much stress not only on students, but their families, too.

The ATAR simply fails to factor in the skills and behaviours that a student acquires over 13 years of schooling. Community attitude research released on Thursday by UNSW Sydney’s Gonski Institute for Education finds that most Australians agree.

There is a role for end-of-schooling exams but using them as the means to assess university course entry is anachronistic. Relyng on the ATAR in this way represents a structural deficiency in both the schooling and higher education systems.
