Partnering in learning: term 4 assessment and feedback
Feedback and assessment schedule
Term 4 is an important time in the academic calendar, as it sees the culmination of studies and final exams for our Year 12s. Our Year 10 and 11s will soon be preparing for end-of-semester CATs, SACs and exams, plus Year 10 Work Experience. Year 9s begin their City School investigations and have some subject exams towards the end of term. Our Year 7s and 8s continue their studies and assessment right to the end of term (with some celebratory activities in the final week) and we are looking forward to the Year 7&8 showcase which will highlight exemplary work from throughout the year. There are a number of opportunties throughout this term to partner with us and your child by engaging with feedback on their learning and assessments.
