Assessment & Mathematics

This year at DSC, we have introduced Developmental Rubrics to assess our students in Mathematics from Year 7 - 9. To support families and students in engaging in this new assessment practice, the Junior and Middle School Numeracy team have made a video that explains what Developmental Rubrics are, why we are using them, how to read them and their alignment to the Victorian Curriculum.

We are really excited about the changes introduced this year, and how this is going to support students in their learning growth and achievement. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to any of the Numeracy team:
