If your child is absent on the day of an exam, your child will need to follow our Missed Exam process​ as outlined in our Learning Policy. As outlined in the policy, students who miss an exam must complete and submit the online Missed Exam Form​ ​along with appropriate documentation. Please note that documentary evidence will need to be submitted to support an absence, for example, a medical certificate or notice of selection into a national sporting team​.

Parents/guardians should email student_records@brisbaneshs.eq.edu.au to advise of any change to student or parent/guardian personal details (including email, address, home phone, mobile or emergency contact details). The email should state the student's name, Year Level and ID number (as it appears on their Student ID Card).​

Address and medical information can be managed via the QParents portal.​​
