Year 7-10 Semester 1 Reports

This week will see the publication of all Year 7-10 Semester 1 Reports on Sentral. I have written to families in a separate letter this week outlining the changes that have occurred in regards to assessment and the reporting of student learning.

As a result, parents will see several changes to our Semester Reports. These changes will include reporting on a student’s knowledge, understanding and skills based on the NESA Common Grade Scale. In addition teachers will be reporting on Learning Behaviours in class and Recommended Strategies for Improvement. These will essentially replace written comments and be more precise in student achievement and where improvements can be made for the next reporting period.
