Assessment and reporting

Our teachers use a variety of strategies to assess student learning.

Teachers observe students' work in class and look closely at tasks throughout the year. They also formally assess a student's achievement based on the outcomes described in the syllabus of the subject.

As a parent or carer, you’ll receive a written report twice a year. It gives you a clear picture of your child’s achievements – what they know and can do.

In Years 7 to 10, we use the common grade scale in reporting. In Year 11, we use the Preliminary grade scale.

Vocational Education and Training (VET) courses are assessed on achievement of competencies.

Assessments

We provide detailed information to students about what we expect from them throughout the year and how their work will be assessed. Students have a number of formal assessments throughout their schooling.

  • HSC Minimum Standard - students who sit HSC exams from 2020 and beyond will sit online reading, writing and numeracy tests when they are in Year 10, 11 and 12, or even after the HSC to receive the HSC. Students will receive two opportunities a year in Years 10, 11 and 12 to achieve a minimum level of standard 3 to pass.
