Quality assurance of Authority subjects
Monitoring poses the question:
“How well is the school implementing the course of study?”
What is in a monitoring submission?• Form R3• Copy of the approved work program• Clean copies of assessment tasks (including data
on conditions)• Minimum of five sample student folios (or the
whole cohort, if less than five)• Documentation of student performances
Role of panellists at monitoring
• Look for evidence in sample folios to support school judgments about student responses
• Review submissions prior to the monitoring meeting• Complete detailed pre-review notes to record of
your findings• Conduct further reviews at the monitoring meeting
and complete detailed review notes• Conference with other panellists to construct a
consensus report for each school submission
Role of review panel
At monitoring, review panels consider the:• implementation of the relevant senior syllabus• effectiveness of assessment instruments in offering
students opportunities to demonstrate syllabus general objectives and standards
• school’s matching of the appropriate standards descriptors with the qualities of student work based on evidence in the sample folios
• interim levels of achievement decisions.
Form R3Review panel chairs provide written advice on behalf of review panels on the Form R3.
Written advice concerns the school’s implementation of the syllabus as demonstrated by the assessment evidence provided in the submission
Written advice to schools
• Based on evidence found in the submission• Clear, concise, constructive, factual, respectful and
relevant• Language reflects the spirit of cooperation and
professional respect• Point in time ― does not pre-empt or make
assumptions about future events
Random sampling• Quality assurance process to ensure the
effectiveness of moderation• Subjects, schools and students are selected at
random• Folios are reviewed by panellists and feedback
provided to the QSA regarding standards
• Panellists may be asked to complete a random sampling review at monitoring
