Secondary Assessment and Reporting

Posted: March 18, 2016

Quarter 3 reports for Years 7-12 will be published, via the Gateway, on Tuesday 22 March at 9.00am.  This report contains grades based on work that has been done so far in Semester 2, i.e. since Monday 18 January. In Years 7-9, grades will be awarded for subject-specific criteria as well as for organisation, social skills and effort.  In Years 10-12, an overall achievement grade will be given for each subject, as well as for organisation, social skills and effort. Grades will be given for CAS in Year 12 and Community Engagement in Years 7-11. Year 13 students do not receive a report at this time.

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 wishing 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.

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 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.

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