Morrisby Assessment for Year 10 students
Thursday 14 March
All Year 10 students will complete the Morrisby online psychometric assessment. From this assessment students will receive a personal and detailed profile report providing an insight into their personal strengths and highlighting options for the future relating to further education or pathways.
Students will need to arrive at The Farrall Centre by 8.25am so they are ready to start the assessment at 8.30am - 10.30am. Students will get intermittent breaks throughout the assessment and will need to bring a fully charged laptop on this day.

New Year 11 students are encouraged to sit the Morrisby Assessment. All new students were emailed log in details to undertake the assessment. New students and their parents are invited to our Morrisby information session as detailed below. It would be more relevant if the assessment was completed prior to this date.
