RICHMOND RIVER HIGH SCHOOL
2015 HSC ASSESSMENT POLICY
WHAT ARE ASSESSMENTS? At the completion of Year 12, schools are required to submit an assessment of student achievement in each subject. The exceptions are those Vocational Education subjects which are competency based. In this case, the student’s log book which records achievement of competencies is submitted to the Board of Studies. Assessments are: a measurement (mark) of student achievement in the Higher School Certificate courses attempted, measured at points throughout the course. moderated to adjust the pattern of assessment from individual schools on the basis of total performance in the external Higher School Certificate examination. As assessments are moderated, the school’s final Higher School Certificate assessment mark is confidential and is not given to students. Students receive only their ranking in each subject. Students will be notified officially by the Board of Studies of their ranking through an official ranking notification which is to be collected from the school at the conclusion of the last Higher School Certificate examination. Students may appeal against this rank. (Refer to ‘N’ Determination Appeals, Page 5.)
WHY HAVE ASSESSMENTS?
Assessments give credit for achievement in some areas of study that are not tested by the external Higher School Certificate examination e.g. laboratory work, oral expression and research skills.
Students are given credit for their progressive efforts in addition to their performance at a single examination.
COMMENCEMENT OF HSC ASSESSMENTS Assessments will commence in Term 4, 2015 and continue in Terms 1, 2, and 3, 2016. Note: These assessment programs are subject to change if circumstances warrant. If it becomes necessary to
make any change, students will be notified in accordance with the requirements of the Senior Assessment Policy.
T:\Teacher\Staff Common Area\Policies and Procedures\Curriculum\Assessment Booklets\2016\Assessment -HSC Program Booklet 2015 - 2016.docx 4
COMPLETION OF HSC ASSESSMENT
The Board of Studies expects students to attempt all assessment tasks set. The minimum requirement is that each student makes a genuine attempt at assessment tasks which contribute in excess of 50% of available marks in that course.
Where a candidate has been given zero marks because of failure to complete assessment tasks totalling 50% or
more of the final course assessment mark, the Principal must certify that the course has not been studied satisfactorily. (Refer to ‘N’ Determinations, Page 6.) If such a disqualification reduces the total number of units to below 10, then the student would not be eligible for a Higher School Certificate for that year.
VOCATIONAL EDUCATION AND TRAINING COURSES
Assessment is based on the attainment of competencies which are recorded in a student Log Book. Work Placement is mandatory. Examinations - students who wish to have a VET course included in their ATAR will be required to sit for both the
school examinations and HSC examinations in that course, so that a ranking and school mark can be entered to the Board in case they have a misadventure on the day of the exam.
NOTIFICATION, ORGANISATION AND COMPLETION OF ASSESSMENT TASKS
At the commencement of each course each teacher will provide students with an assessment task outline which includes the syllabus outcomes to be assessed. Students will be given two weeks written notice of an assessment task. They will also be given information on: the knowledge/skills outcomes from the syllabus document that the task will assess and type of task, e.g. research,
assignment, oral, test, practical, etc. arrangements for the task, e.g. the time of day that an out of class task is to be submitted. the weighting of the task (that is, its relative value in the course). marking criteria for the task. feedback on performance in the task. Students should: ensure that they have a full understanding of the requirements of the assessment task. attend all lessons so that the necessary knowledge and skills for the task are gained. plan in advance and start the task as soon as possible rather than leave it to the last minute. aim to achieve their best by drawing on previous experience with non-assessable tasks in the subject. ensure that any work missed due to illness or other approved leave is completed as soon as possible. It is the
student’s responsibility to find out what has been missed in preparation for an assessment task.
T:\Teacher\Staff Common Area\Policies and Procedures\Curriculum\Assessment Booklets\2016\Assessment -HSC Program Booklet 2015 - 2016.docx 5
Submission/Completion of Tasks
tasks which require ongoing work and which are submitted on a set date (“hand-in” tasks) must always be submitted
before 9.00 am on Monday morning – the specific date being specified on the task notification. there may only be two tasks set for any student in any given school week that are to be completed during a specified
timetabled period (“in-class” tasks). no assessment tasks of any nature are to be due for completion/submission within one week prior to a scheduled
examination period. Change of Date for Assessment If it is deemed necessary for the due date of the task to change the decision will be made in consultation with the Deputy Principal, Head Teacher, class teacher and students. Students will be notified in writing of the change.
FAILURE TO COMPLETE AN ASSESSMENT TASK A student must satisfy the requirements of an assessment task on the day set for submission. Failure by a student to
submit the assessment task on the date set for submission will result in an award of zero marks to the student for that task.
A task that has been awarded zero marks must still be completed and submitted for marking, in order to satisfy the
syllabus outcomes of the course.
REPORTING
The achievement of syllabus outcomes together with information on assessment and exams will be reported on twice a year.
MALPRACTICE
Students must be familiar with the guidelines and standards established by the BOS program, “All My Own Work”. This is a compulsory program for all senior students. Any malpractice in examinations, tests or assessment tasks or any attempt to gain unfair advantage over one’s peers will be treated severely and the student may therefore face an ‘N’ determination. Malpractice includes such things as: cheating of all kinds plagiarism missing days or parts of days without good reason immediately before assessment due dates or examinations. If
malpractice in this regard is suspected, a medical certificate may be required and a Application for Late Assessment form must be submitted.
If a whole class or whole course assessment task has been compromised a panel consisting of the senior Executive and Head Teacher will review the circumstances and may deem the task to be void. In this case students may be given an alternative task or the weighting of the original task may be spread across future tasks. The original task will still contribute to class work. Where a student truants a lesson in order to prepare for an assessment task or is identified as preparing for a task in another lesson, the student will be given zero for the task.

DISABILITY ASSISTANCE
Some students because of serious disability may be eligible for assistance. This assistance would apply to in-school assessment tasks under examination conditions, as well as examinations and could include: extra time oral interpreter or reader dictionary or Thesaurus
“N” DETERMINATION
A student will be considered to have satisfactorily completed a course if, in the Principal’s view, there is sufficient evidence that the student has: (a) Followed the course developed or endorsed by the Board of Studies, and (b) Applied themselves with diligence and sustained effort to the set tasks and experiences provided in the course
by the school, and (c) Achieved some or all of the course outcomes. To satisfactorily complete a course with the above requirements, the school determines that a student must attend 85% or over of lessons in each course. Class teachers will check attendance each lesson. Remember, that in relation to assessment tasks, the Board also determines that students must complete assessment tasks which contribute in excess of 50% of the final assessment marks in that course. If course outcomes are not being met, due to absences or lack of a sustained and diligent effort, or because assessment requirements are not being met, students will receive warning letters.
Students studying Vocational Education and Training Courses Note that: 1. the above Board of Studies rules apply to these courses 2. work placement is a mandatory component of these courses. A student who does not complete their work placement component will be deemed as not having satisfactorily completed the course.
WARNING LETTERS
The purpose of warning letters is not only to inform students of the possibility of an ‘N’ determination but also to make students aware that they need to take immediate action to rectify the situation. On receiving any warning letter, students should discuss their progress with their teacher and/or Year Adviser. Students should note that the Board requires that only two official letters be sent before the Principal may determine an ‘N’ Award. If a student is to be given an ‘N’ determination, the student will be advised by the Principal.
Note: You will be required to complete and/or submit tasks in each Higher School Certificate course which may not be assessment tasks. Such tasks will be set to ensure that you meet all the course outcomes and will add to your learning for the Higher School Certificate examination. When certifying for the award of the Higher School Certificate a student’s satisfactory progress and completion of course work, principals must consider involvement in both assessments and non-assessment tasks.
A Special Note If you are having any trouble with your work and need to talk to someone,
please approach your Year Adviser or subject teacher.

APPLICATION FOR LATE ASSESSMENT
Students may apply for late submission or extension of an assessment task date in the following circumstances: i) Illness If a student misses a task through illness, a medical certificate should be supplied verifying the illness. Students are to supply the certificate immediately on return to school. The doctor’s (medical) certificate must be dated at the time of the illness. In exceptional circumstances where a student is unable to supply a medical certificate they or their parent must immediately contact the Head Teacher of the subject on the day the task is due. Students must apply for late assessment on the day of their return after an illness. If students are applying for late assessment due to illness the following process must be followed:
The teacher/Head Teacher is to be kept informed as soon as students are aware of events/illness that may affect their performance/completion of the task.
Complete section 1 of the “Application for Late Assessment” form and attach the medical certificate. (Forms are available from the subject Head Teacher. An example is shown on page 6.)
The Head Teacher must sight all work completed to that date, demonstrating the progress the student has made.
Take the form to the Head Teacher of the subject to complete. The Head Teacher will make a decision in consultation with the Principal if appropriate. If the application is approved the Head Teacher will either:
a) allow the student to do the same task, if applicable, or b) allow the student to do a suitable replacement task, or c) give an estimate for that task only, based on the quality of the student’s work in the components being assessed.
Note: Failure to supply a medical certificate dated at the time of illness and failure to apply for late assessment on the day of return from an illness will lead to a zero for that task. ii) Misadventure or unforeseen circumstance There must be a serious reason in order to be excused from an assessment task. In such cases the following process must be followed:
The teacher/Head Teacher is to be kept informed as soon as students are aware of events/illness that may affect their performance/completion of the task.
The Head Teacher must sight all work completed to that date, demonstrating the progress the student has made.
Discuss the reason with the Head Teacher of the subject and complete section 2 of the “Application for Late Assessment” form, stating the reason why an extension or alternative date is sought.
(Forms are available from the subject Head Teacher. An example is shown on page 6.)
Take the form to the Head Teacher of the subject to complete. The Head Teacher will make a decision in consultation with the Principal if appropriate.
If approved, the Principal will notify the Head Teacher of the subject who will either: a) allow the student to do the same task, if applicable, or b) allow the student to do a suitable alternative task, or c) allow for an estimate for that task only, based on the quality of the student’s work in the components being assessed.
Note: Submitting an application for late assessment does not necessarily mean that an extension will be granted. In the case of school endorsed activities - including Work Placement, TAFE mandatory tasks, sporting representation, debating, public speaking etc: If you are involved in a school endorsed activity, it is your responsibility to complete, by the set date, any assessment tasks that may be due in your absence. You must see the teacher/s involved as soon as you are aware of these commitments and negotiate a solution if the task is an in class activity or exam. If this is the case a Late Assessment Application form must be completed and given to the relevant Head Teacher. Any hand in assessment task will be expected on the due date or before. For Work Placement, a document must be signed by all class teachers acknowledging your absence. This will give you an opportunity to speak to all class teachers about work that may be missed and assessment task issues. It is the student’s responsibility to catch up on any work missed. Being involved in a school endorsed activity is not a reason for late assessment. Being able to manage these commitments successfully requires careful forward planning by the student and communication with the teachers involved. It is essential that teachers are aware of your progress and work efforts and they must be informed of your impending absence prior to any school endorsed activity. In the case of a suspension the student must indicate to the Principal, upon being suspended, if they will miss any assessment tasks during the suspension period. They will then be expected to demonstrate to the Head Teacher of the subject the progress that they have made on the task/s prior to leaving the school to begin their suspension. Once the suspension has been resolved the student must make an application for late assessment. Note: It is the student’s responsibility to see the Head Teacher on the day they know of any circumstance which may require them to miss an assessment task. Alternatively, if a task is missed due to an unforeseen circumstance, it is the student’s responsibility to see the Head Teacher the day they return to school after the absence. Failure to do so will result in a zero for that task.

RIGHTS OF APPEAL 1. N’ DETERMINATION APPEALS for NON COMPLETION of COURSE REQUIREMENTS
If an ‘N’ Award has been determined, the student has the right to appeal. A review panel consisting of the Principal, Deputy Principal, Year Adviser and the Head Teacher of the subject will be formed. Students who wish a review of an ‘N’ determination must do so by applying to the Principal by the due date listed by the Board of Studies for 2013. This date may be obtained from the Principal. Students will be notified of the outcome of the appeal and of any continuation of the appeal process. 2. APPEALS AGAINST ASSESSMENT RANKING in HIGHER SCHOOL CERTIFICATE
COURSES
(a) School Policy Students will be notified of their final ranking for each course studied in their final school report. Students, who then consider that their placement in the rank order for any course is not correct, on the basis of feedback on their performance during the course, should appeal to the Principal immediately. Students should note that an assessment review will focus only on the school’s procedures for determining the final assessment mark. Students are not entitled to seek a review of teacher’s judgments of the worth of individual performance in assessment tasks. The marks awarded will not be subject to review as part of this process as students are not given their final assessment mark. Students will be informed of the outcome of the review and be advised of any subsequent appeal to the Board of Studies. (b) Board of Studies The Board of Studies supplies to the school an individual sheet which indicates the final ranking in each course studied. This sheet will be dispatched from the Board of Studies in late October of your HSC year. If there is any variation between the ranking in this sheet and what is on the final school report, the students should appeal to the Principal immediately. Students must adhere to the closing date for such appeals.
