Assessment and Reporting

Education Plans

Each student has an Education Plan that documents their prior learning, current abilities, successful strategies and future educational needs. It identifies three or four focus outcomes from the Australian Curriculum and Early Years Learning Framework. These focus outcomes are reviewed annually.


Review Conference is a very important meeting and required by the school and DoE policy. It is attended by families/caregivers, class teacher, senior staff member and, in specific cases, other professionals or support people if requested by the family. An interpreter will be arranged if requested by the family.


The conference is used to:

  • Discuss family and program priorities
  • Share student achievements and progress
  • Update Health Care Plans, Update the Education Plan and determine the focus outcomes
  • General discussion and information sharing.
  • A draft Education Plans are sent home before the Review Conference for family discussion.


Education Plan is signed by all parties at the Review Conference. The Education Plan is then implemented by the class teacher.

Reporting Process

Teachers review the progress of each child on an ongoing basis and are happy to share this with families at any time. However, a formal and comprehensive reporting process is undertaken on a yearly basis.

 

The process identifies student achievements of their focus outcomes, reports on programs and determines priority learning outcomes for the next 12 months. The process is as follows:

 

  • Observations and evidence are collected by the class teacher, SESO, senior staff and therapists throughout the school year.
  • Teachers write the report which is discussed with the school leadership team and signed by the principal/assistant principal
  • Reports are sent home at the end of Term 4
  • A portfolio of work is compiled by the teacher and the student in term 4 each year. It is a record of achievements and a celebration of learning throughout the year. We encourage families to share this with their child and extended family.
