Vincent Stanford, 25, has pleaded guilty to murdering Miss Scott on April 5 last year – Easter Sunday and six days before her planned wedding.
Supreme Court judge, Justice Robert Hulme, will hear sentencing submissions by a Crown Prosecutor and Stanford’s barrister.
It is expected the submissions will take most of the day.
It is not yet known when Justice Hulme will deliver sentence.
Stanford sexually assaulted Miss Scott before stabbing her to death at the school after she went there to prepare lesson plans for another teacher who was to fill in for Miss Scott while she was on her honeymoon.
Stanford dumped and burnt Miss Scott’s body in the Cocoparra National Park.
