How does this affect my timetable?
A SPARC entitles a student to reach ahead in their subject area of choice. Typically, it means taking 2 courses in your favourite subject each school year.
Student voice is important to creating the timetable of your dreams. Any extra elective courses will be chosen by the students based on interest.
