Semester Reports

As explained in our last newsletter, there will be some changes to the format of our Semester Reports this year. One of the major changes is the introduction of RECOGNITION OF LEARNING: SKILLS AND KNOWLEDGE in the areas of English and Mathematics. Teachers will indicate if your child is ‘beginning’, ‘consolidating’ ‘established’ or ‘proficient’ or ‘needs additional support’  in regard to a number of skills expected for their Year Level. It is very important to note that these skills are the expectation for the END OF THE YEAR.  Therefore, for Semester 1 a student who is at the expected level will be marked at ‘consolidating’ (See information from last newsletter.)  Although this is a new element in our reporting, for most students there is an expectation that they have met the previous year level expectations. As such, a PDF of the Skills and Knowledge elements for all year levels in English and Mathematics is attached below for your reference.

If you have any further questions or would like more information about the reporting format, please feel free to contact me.
