Westfields Sports High School

First In Australia

Assessment and reporting

Westfields Sports Information and Assessment:

An assessment booklet is published each year for stages 5 and 6 outlining all assessment tasks and due dates. The assessment booklet is published on the cohort's Google Classroom and is also emailed to all students via their DoE email accounts. HSC students are provided with a hard copy of this document.

Teachers observe students' work in class and look closely at tasks throughout the year. They also formally assess a student's achievement based on the outcomes described in the syllabus of the subject.

As a parent or carer, you’ll receive a written report twice a year. It gives you a clear picture of your child’s achievements – what they know and can do.

In Years 7 to 10, we use the common grade scale in reporting. In Year 11, we use the Preliminary grade scale.

Vocational Education and Training (VET) courses are assessed on achievement of competencies.

Assessments

We provide detailed information to students about what we expect from them throughout the year and how their work will be assessed. Students have a number of formal assessments throughout their schooling.
