Primary Reporting - Semester 1 2021
Our teaching team have begun the process of creating each child’s Semester 1 2021 report. In Semester 1:

For Kindergarten students:
• Achievement in each subject will be reported using a four-point scale (Well Above Expectations, Above Expectations, Meeting Expectations and Working Towards Expectations).

For Year 1 to Year 6 students:
• Academic grades for each subject using a five-point scale from A-E will be reported using the NSW Common Grade Scale.

For all students:
• Strand Achievement will be reported in English, Mathematics, Human Society and its Environment, PDHPE and Creative Arts using a five-point scale (Excellent, High, Sound, Basic, Elementary).
• Engagement with Learning statements, which are taken directly from the Australian Curriculum, will provide specific information about your child’s Critical and Creative Thinking, and Personal and Social Responsibility, using a three-point scale (Beginning, Developing, Consistently).
• Individual student comments will not be used in the Semester 1 Reports.

We encourage you to have a conversation with your child's classroom teacher, should you have a concern with the information contained in the upcoming school reports. The new approach to Academic Reporting is a developing process and it is a system wide approach. All Canberra/Goulburn Catholic Primary Schools will be reporting in the same format. Further work will be undertaken in the coming months to determine how progress and achievement is best reported based on what we know to be important information about a student’s learning and progress.
