The SACE Board grants credits for students who have successfully completed an intensive English learning program. Schools are required to submit Intensive English learning programs to the SACE Board for approval before applications for recognition are made. 

Students can gain up to 40 credits at Stage 1 for the successful completion of an intensive English learning program. Please note that these programs are not sufficient to meet the literacy requirement of the SACE. 

Students apply for recognition at Stage 1 using Form 12.
