Please scroll down the Compass Reports page to see the Progress report. If a teacher has requested an interview, please make a booking with that teacher for a Parent-Student-Teacher Conference.

 

Parent-Student-Teacher Conferences will be held on Wednesday 27th March between 12 noon and 7:30pm.  Information on how to book conferences, please click on the link below: 

 

Please be aware that we expect students to be present for any conferences.

 

Progress Reports are completed mid-semester, at the end of term 1 and term 3, and report student work habits. The work habits are based on Yarrabing Secondary College’s four core values. 

 

These values are: 

  • Respect - We respect ourselves, our school and each other, and understand that our attitudes and behaviours have an impact on the people around us. 
  • Responsibility - We take on responsibility by being personally accountable for, and in control of our actions.  
  • High Expectations - We set ourselves high expectations and strive to achieve success in everything we do, to the best of our ability, and embrace every opportunity that is offered.
  • Collaboration - We come together to collaborate and contribute our expertise and thoughts for the benefit of a shared objective or project. Collaboration brings people together and enables positive relationships to flourish.

Parent-Student-Teacher-Student conferences provide an opportunity for parents to meet their child’s teachers, share information about their child’s progress, interests and needs and discuss their child’s learning. They provide an opportunity for teachers to understand more about the student and provide an opportunity for the co-creation of clear learning and behaviour goals to guide the next steps in student learning and achievement.

Learning Task results

A continuous reporting system operates through Compass to provide real time information to parents about how learning is progressing. Students are partners in their own learning, setting goals, monitoring progress and acting on feedback as they complete learning tasks throughout the school year. Parents/guardians are encouraged to be keypartners in this process by monitoring assessment results via Compass and supporting students to act on feedback and suggestions for improvement. 

 

Compass Learning Tasks are used by teachers to provide continuous and timely feedback on assessment tasks to both students and parents/guardians. Feedback for each task will include a grade and a comment. Teachers may also use Compass learning tasks to track classwork and other general classroom tasks.  Key Learning Tasks (KLTs) will be labelled as “Assessment”. 

 

The Assessment scale for Key Learning Tasks is shown below.
