Learning and Teaching

Semester 1 reports  are now available through PAM. 

This year there are changes to student reporting for Mathematics in Victorian Catholic schools.

The Victorian Curriculum and Assessment Authority (VCAA) published a revised Mathematics curriculum (Mathematics Version 2.0), which we have started to use this year. 

On your child’s previous report, the teacher reported against the three strands of the achievement standard for Mathematics (Number and Algebra, Measurement and Geometry, and Statistics and Probability). Under the Mathematics Version 2.0 curriculum, your child’s teacher will report against the achievement standard as a whole, providing a single, aggregated score.

As the achievement standards reported on have changed, the first time you receive a report under the Mathematics Version 2.0 curriculum, it will only show achievement and not progress. For all reports after this, progress will be shown against the single achievement standard.

The VCAA made these changes to help teachers plan their teaching and learning programs in Mathematics, giving them more flexibility to support students to link ideas within Mathematics and also with other curriculum areas.

If you have any queries about your child’s report, please contact the class teacher.

We will be hosting Student Led learning conversations on Thursday 7 August. School will finish at 1pm, with bookings to be made available for families to meet with class teachers (from 2pm-7pm) to hear about the growth and progress being made by our students. Please put this date in your diary!
