Assessment and Reporting

End of Year Reports

Semester 2 Reports will be sent home on Monday 11th December 2023.

 

The purpose of the report is to formally report student achievement and progress to parents/carers, and to report directly against the Victorian Curriculum F-10 Achievement Standards.

 

Achievement in the Victorian Curriculum domains is marked using an A-E scale as required by the Commonwealth Government.  

A student who has achieved the ‘C’ rating indicates that he or she has met the state wide standards.

Our ‘Target Skills’ are a checklist of skills that are of focus in your child’s learning throughout the semester.  These skills are taken directly from the Achievement Standards and assist classroom teachers in the marking of your child’s achievement against the Victorian Curriculum.

 

When assessing Target Skills, the following scale of achievement is used:

Not Yet Evident

Beginning

Developing

Achieved

Embedded in Learning

No evidence of the skill

Beginning to show the skill with/without support

Displays elements of the skill independently 

Displays the skill consistently and independently

Applies the skill to other areas of learning

 

The report also includes written overviews of what has been taught in the various Curriculum Areas, including Specialist Areas, as well as a general comment on your child’s social and emotional skills.  

 

If you would like to discuss your child’s progress, please feel free to make a mutually convenient time to speak to your child’s classroom teacher.
