Reporting
Reporting
Students will receive their first school report in mid Term 2. The final Year 11 school report will contain ranks for each subject completed at school and be issued early in Term 4. Students who finish school prior to completion of the Higher School Certificate can apply for a Record of Student Achievement (RoSA) which has the grades attained for Stage 5 and Year 11 courses.
Learning Tasks
Each Assessment Task will be visible as a Learning Task on Compass after marking has been completed. The mark and written feedback will be visible to students and their carers. This is to ensure carers can get feedback on how their son/daughter is progressing through the course.
