Junior School – Term 1

Teachers will publish feedback on Astra from the Parent-Teacher Interviews as a Wellbeing Record this term. Parents will receive an Astra notification when this is available for viewing.

 

Senior School – Term 1

Teachers will grade students' classroom Effort and Dedication six times yearly for most subjects. Most subjects will grade twice in Term 1: Round 1 on 23 February and Round 2 on 22 March. Parents will receive Astra notifications as each subject teacher publishes the grades. For more information on viewing the Effort and Dedication grades and all assessment grades, refer to the information below.

 

Senior School – Continuous reporting on Astra

For most subjects, each time students undertake any specific assessment task, the subject teacher will provide written feedback on the task and the grade achieved on Astra. Feedback on general progress will be provided online each term, including a summary of your child’s effort and dedication to the subject in general. 

 

Parents receive notifications via Astra. At the end of the year, all parents will receive an online Academic Report, the 'Statement of Results'.
