Personalised Plans & Semester One Reports
Parent Teacher Interviews
Over the coming weeks if your child/ren has a Personalised Plan their classroom teacher will touch base with you via phone to discuss their progress and learning goals.
Adjusted Reports
Reporting provides feedback to students, parents and other teachers about student progress. The A–E grading scale or equivalent provides a common language for reporting. Teachers use the grading scale to report student levels of achievement.
Where adjustments are made to assessment activities, this should not restrict the student’s access to the full range of grades or marks. For some students with disability, teachers may need to consider the most appropriate method of reporting student achievement. This may include reporting against personalised goals and syllabus outcomes identified through the collaborative curriculum planning process.
At St Patrick’s, students who receive substantial or extensive adjustments in accordance with NCCD receive an Adjusted Report. Instead of receiving A-E grades in the curriculum areas where the adjustments are in place the Adjusted Report focuses on the students’ personalised goals. Students will still receive their Compass Report and the Adjusted Report will uploaded to the Compass Chronicle.
Behaviours for Learning in Reports
Semester Reports provide detailed feedback about a student’s capacity to demonstrate the deliberate engagement behaviours we know underpin academic success. To emphasis your child/ren’s engagement in learning the Semester One reports will include an Engagement with Learning section with a four point scale.
