Now that we have settled into the rhythm of 2022, I encourage students to maintain their use of their College diary to keep up to date with homework and assessments. Collectively, this term will see the completion of 79 formal assessments across all Key Learning Areas and all year groups. A schedule of tasks which summarises all of the upcoming formal assessments has been displayed in each pastoral classroom for students to refer to. 

Over the past fortnight, I have had a number of conversations with students from Years 9, 10 and 11 wanting to change courses or electives. Please note that Friday March 4 will be the last opportunity for students to submit any Change of Course forms. If you are unsure about your child’s request, please do not hesitate to contact the College to discuss. Significant changes to their pattern of study will be brought to your attention prior to the Change of Course form being approved and processed.  

Assessment Handbooks
2022 Assessment Handbooks were published onto the NewsFeed in Compass this week. These handbooks are a useful resource for planning ahead and remaining organised. The first section of each handbook explains the processes specific to each year group with regards to submission and expectations if students are absent on the due date of a task. All formal assessments will follow the schedules within each handbook.
