Feedback and assessment: seeing your child's learning progress

Online feedback through myNorthcoteHigh

One of the best ways for parents, guardians and families to partner in each student’s learning is to stay up to date through myNorthcoteHigh with what work is being done and what due dates are coming up. We also offer online feedback through myNorthcoteHigh, and this can be a great way to get a sense of how your child(ren)’s learning is progressing.

Three times this semester we will be prompting parents, guardians and families to check in on myNorthcoteHigh and read some of the feedback comments our teachers are giving students. These comments will be personalised and improvement-focussed, with strategies which will help each child achieve their personal best. There will also be assessment rubrics for any completed CATs for years 7-10 so that students can clearly see what skills and knowledge they demonstrated and how they can move to the next level in future.

• The first of these ‘feedback prompts’ will be in the week beginning 23rd March.
• Subsequent ‘prompts’ will be in mid-May, and mid-June.
