From Tuesday, when HSC exams begin, Steven Lee will move down to three work days a week to spend more time with son Marcus, 17. "It'll be getting him out of the house, trying to go out to some regular sport twice a week," Mr Lee said. "He's asked to play badminton."
Taking time off work also means he will be around to have greater oversight of Marcus' work and help him earmark a study plan. "Most kids don't like parents watching over their shoulder, but we're helping him learn to self-monitor. It's part of the growing up experience."
Mr Lee is among an increased number of parents who have opted to take annual leave or reduce their work hours while their son or daughter sits the HSC over the next four weeks.

Sleepless nights. New responsibilities. Family. Regrets. Fears: "I get terrified it's going to happen again...We all have something, right?"
In an extraordinary interview in today's @goodweekendmag, Nicole Kidman talks candidly with Michael Idato, who has known her since he was a young TV writer in the 1990s, and she'd just wowed audiences with the three-part series Bangkok Hilton.
And after decades of big-screen stardom, 53-year-old Kidman has returned to the small screen – this time, not only as an actor, but as one of Hollywood's hottest executive producers.

This is the first year students are sitting the HSC at Cammeraygal High School which. The students have formed close bonds being the only children in the playground in year 7 when the school was established in 2015. Their bond has served them in surprising ways this year, forming a base from which to navigate lockdowns and final exams amid a global pandemic.

Victoria Liston can remember being awestruck by her baby’s size. Born in May weighing more than four kilograms, Kiera was perfectly chubby and pink with a full head of hair.
“I can remember so vividly just staring at her like ‘oh my gosh, you’re here’,” Victoria says. “They put her on my chest and she squirmed and wriggled … It was like everything else just stopped.”
But Victoria and husband Danny, both 36, from Sydney, soon noticed that Kiera was struggling to breathe. It would be the first sign that the little life, which began with a “smooth-sailing” first pregnancy and a relatively stress-free birth, would end just five hours after coming into the world.
Danny says their big hope is that they can now turn the tragedy into something meaningful by giving their daughter a legacy, helping others feel less alone and fundraising. They recently launched a website called Kiera’s Contribution.
Today marks Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day. it's estimated one in five confirmed pregnancies end in miscarriage and one in 120 births result in stillbirth or newborn death.
