Secondary Assessment and Reporting

Posted: October 16, 2015

The following documents are available on our website here.

  • The Secondary Assessment Policy outlines our philosophy towards assessment of individual tasks and our approach to reporting on student achievement to parents.
  • The DC Secondary ARR Structure 2015-16 outlines the structure of reports throughout the year and the relevant deadlines.
  • The MYP Assessment Procedures outline how overall achievement grades are worked out in each subject of the MYP.
  • The DP Assessment Procedures outline how overall achievement grades are worked out in each subject of the DP.

The first Secondary Report was published, via the Gateway, on Friday 16 October at 9am.  This report contains grades based on work that has been done so far in the year. In Y7-9, grades will be awarded for subject-specific criteria as well as for organisation, social skills and effort. In Y10-13, an overall achievement grade will be given for each subject, as well as for organisation, social skills and effort.  In Y12-13, a grade will be given for CAS.

To access a report, log in to Gateway, click on ‘ARR’ and then click ‘ARR report’ which will present families with a report viewing tab and printing tab. Families wanting to print hard copies and/or save an electronic version of their child’s report, should note that all reports will be available to download as a PDF.

A tutorial on accessing student reports through the Gateway is available on the school website can be accessed at: http://www.discovery.edu.hk/current-parents/gateway-help/arr-student-assessment-tutorial-secondary/
