Episodes
Meet 14 Australian students as they self-document their final year of high school through daily video diaries. The stresses of this launch-pad year start on day one as they delve into the pressures of the ATAR.
With 36 weeks until final exams, Tom is finding it hard to make it to school on time; Charlie is stressed about passing his drivers' licence; and Trianna feels the pressure of falling behind at her competitive school.
With 33 weeks until final exams, Alfie must curb his party-going ways if he's going to please his Mum, and Zoe struggles with the demands of homework and the need to move between her parent's houses.
Travel and elite sport get some priority in the kids' busy schedules. Alex attends try-outs for the Australian Ultimate Frisbee team; Angela competes for Australia in Taekwondo, and Shianna travels to Sydney to see a musical.
Jess' army dreams are unexpectedly put in jeopardy; Tom deals with the change of moving house, new braces and making it to a test on time; and Zoe's feelings about her sister and her cheating boyfriend spill over.
My Year 12 Life is a unique and innovative series told entirely through the lens of fourteen students from all around Australia who turn the camera on themselves and record a personal video diary documenting their thoughts and feelings as they navigate one of the most stressful times of their lives. Inspired by the serious stress the ATAR is putting on kids, this series aims to create a national conversation about the pressures of Year 12 and explores how our education system prepares young people to enter further studies or the workforce. The resulting self executed 'vlogumentary' series is emotional, often hilarious and full of suspense - how will they each endure the year's many ups and downs and will they ultimately be able to get the result they want?
