Learning and Teaching at the College
Semester 2 Reports
Today all students in Years 7 - 10 will have electronic access to their Semester 2 Academic Report. This report can be obtained through the Compass portal. This report is a record of the progress students have made in each course throughout the last two terms of 2021. Each report has a number of common elements.
The pastoral report identifies a student's contributions to the school and pastoral class in general. This is followed by a subject report for each course a student has completed in Semester 2.
For each subject there is a course grade, which is an overall judgement on the progress of the student in that subject. The common grade scale located on the first page of the report provides some basic information on what each grade represents. This grade scale can also be applied to each of the outcomes listed for each subject.
Subject outcomes are a summary of the specific knowledge, skills and attitudes (what a student can do) devised or endorsed by NESA for each subject. The level achieved for each outcome area reflects a particular teacher’s assessment of the student’s level of development in that outcome area at the time of the report. It is a measure of all the work completed in class and through formal assessment tasks that contribute to achieving that outcome grade.
The learning profile section outlines how well a student has applied themselves to their studies and should provide an indication of their commitment to learning during the second semester. Each teacher has also provided a comment that highlights what your child is doing well and identifies a targeted area for growth and improvement.
The Parent/Student/Teacher interviews being held via zoom on Tuesday 14 December from 4pm-8pm and Wednesday 15 December from 9am-12pm, are an ideal opportunity to discuss student’s progress in each course and explore ways of improving in 2022. Bookings for these interviews can be made via Compass.
If you have any questions about the report, feel free to contact the Pastoral Advisor or class teacher.
