In 2006 the Federal Government introduced new requirements that ensure schools provide parents/caregivers with:
The Queensland Studies Authority reports on Year 3 and 5 literacy and numeracy testing
An opportunity to meet with the child’s teacher/s at least twice a year
A written report, twice per year, against achievement levels with clearly identified standards and a five-point scale, A – E (or equivalent)
The opportunity to access information on a child’s achievement relative to the child’s peer group.
All Saints’ has reviewed their reporting processes and practices to ensure that they:
Use plain language that is easily understood
Provide a written report twice each year (paper or electronic)
Provide opportunities for parents and teachers to meet twice per year
Give an accurate assessment of the child’s progress and achievements
Offer to provide additional information regarding how the group of students in the same year level or subject is performing against state standards.
