Secondary Assessment and Reporting

Posted: October 7, 2016

Quarter 1 reports for Y7-13 will be published via the Gateway on Friday 21 October at 9am. This report contains grades based on work that has been done so far in Semester 1, i.e. since Wednesday 10 August.

In Y7-9, grades will be awarded for subject-specific criteria as well as for organisation, social skills and effort. For Y10-13, 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 Y12 and Community Engagement in Y7-11.

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.
