Academic reports for Semester 1 will be issued to families on Friday 19th June. An effective partnership between the home and the school is a key to the education of your child and we appreciate your time to make this conversation happen.
For online interviews on Wednesday 24th June, upon making your booking you will receive a video conferencing link. At your allocated time, please click the join link and wait for your class teacher to admit entry into the virtual room.
All interviews are strictly 10 minutes only and are an opportunity to discuss with the classroom teacher your child’s progress so far, as well as their future learning needs. The smooth running of our Parent Teacher Interviews relies on all parents keeping to the timetable. If you need more time with a particular teacher, arrange a separate meeting or phone call.
Nationally Consistent Collection of Data (NCCD) On School Students with Disability
As stated in the NCCD Guidelines,
“Approved authorities and their schools must notify students and parents, guardians, carers or associates to ensure that all involved in the NCCD are fully aware of the data collection, its purpose, legislative basis, to whom NCCD data will be disclosed, and that
assurance activities may be conducted by the department in relation to the NCCD data (Department of Education 2025, p. 18).”
Please note that our school is currently preparing to complete the Nationally Consistent Collection of Data on School Students with Disability (NCCD). It counts the number of students who receive additional adjustments at school because of a disability.
Parents can refer to the fact sheets below for further information.
Please refer to the NCCD Portal for translated versions of the document.
