We're talking about high school / hsc, right?

1995 was my graduation year and one of the subjects i did for the HSC was
3U Computing Studies.  This was the first year that 3U was an option.
There was a small amount of programming in the 2 unit course, and the extra
unit was entirely programming.

Whether this is an available option to students all over the place I don't
know.  This would depend if there are teachers there capable of teaching
the subject, which is commonly the limitation in availability of subjects
in high school.
