School Assessment Program Year 11 - Preliminary Course

Introduction

The following is an outline of the assessment procedures that will be used at this school to

determine the Year 11 result for the Preliminary Course in subjects offered at Whitebridge High

School.

The Preliminary course MUST be 'satisfactorily completed' as a pre-requisite for entry into

an HSC Course.

The Preliminary course will be completed over three terms in 2018

The HSC course in most instances will commence in Term 4, 2018

All students at Whitebridge High School will receive their Record of School Achievement

(ROSA) in grades A - E based on Board of Studies performance descriptors. The performance

descriptors have been developed by the Board of Studies to assist teachers to allocate grades to

students.

Whitebridge High School will determine the order of merit in all courses based on our own

assessment programs and allocate the grades to students accordingly. Grades A to E are

awarded for all subjects except the General Life Skills courses. These course performance

descriptors describe the main features of a typical student’s performance at each level of

achievement in that course. They serve as benchmarks against which teachers will be able

to match their assessment records and professional judgement in determining grades for

particular students. There will not be any pre-determined proportion of students awarded

each grade.

The assessment component for the Preliminary Course in a subject does not contribute directly to

the HSC assessment component for this subject. However, the Preliminary course content is

regarded as 'assumed knowledge' and satisfactory completion is a pre-requisite for entry into the

HSC course. Students who are in danger of unsatisfactory completion of a course may need to

repeat some components of the course to meet requirements in order to continue to the HSC.

The Preliminary Course Assessment

The school assessment for the preliminary course is designed to encompass the syllabus outcomes

and objectives, some of which will be indicated by performance in examinations and other

measurement methods. The assessment determined for a particular course is a measure of a student's

achievement relative to the achievement of the course outcomes at the conclusion of the course. This

course provides students with skills and knowledge that are essential to the HSC.

The Student's Responsibility - Assessment Program

a. Each student is required to complete all assessment tasks. To complete a course

satisfactorily; a student must fulfill all requirements of the syllabus, eg assignments,

practical work, participation in class, and assessment tasks.

b. Tasks, which are not performed or submitted at the nominated time on the set day, will

be awarded a zero mark, unless the Assessment Committee accepts the student’s

written explanation as valid. This committee will comprise the class teacher, Head

Teacher of the subject and the Principal, or his/her nominee.

Page 4: WHITEBRIDGE HIGH SCHOOL€¦ · Do not take bags, notepaper, exam papers or any other item from the exam room. Upon the supervisor’s instructions students will leave the exam room

Page 4

c. A doctor’s certificate or documentary evidence will be required in the case of illness.

d. Students who miss a task must complete an “Illness/Misadventure Form” and submit it

to the Head Teacher of the subject on the first day they attend school after the task date.

Holidays that are taken at a time when an assessment task is scheduled will not be

considered as an “Illness/Misadventure”.

e. Students presenting a valid reason may be required to attempt an alternative task, or, in

exceptional circumstances, may be assessed on other evidence.

f. Computer / Printer failure will not be accepted as an excuse for non completion of a

task.

NB: It is the student’s responsibility to approach the teacher to make

arrangements to undertake a similar task or test as soon as possible, usually the next day.

Application is made via “Illness / Misadventure” form. (See end of booklet for example

form.) Students who have prior knowledge that they will be absent on the set task date

must advise the Head Teacher not later than 2 school weeks before the due date, where

this is practicable, so that alternative arrangements can be made.

g. All assessments tasks are to be completed by the student only unless contrary directions

are given for particular tasks i.e. work submitted is to be the students own work. (See

http://amow.boardofstudies.nsw.edu.au/)

h. Tasks are due for performance, oral submission or presentation in the designated lesson

time for that subject unless otherwise specified. It is the student’s responsibility to

present themselves at the commencement of that lesson for the task otherwise they will

be deemed as absent. If there is a change to the assessment schedule students will be

given 2 weeks notification of such changes, where practicable, or the change will be

made through negotiation between the students affected and the class teacher.

i. Not all tasks given to students will be assessment tasks. For example, some homework,

and assignments will contribute to each student’s assessed mark indirectly through and

skills gained and shown in assessment tasks and examinations.

j. Any student found cheating in an Assessment task would receive a zero for that task.

k. Students are required to make a serious and genuine attempt at all assessment and class

tasks. Tasks that are deemed to be a ‘non serious’ attempt by the Head Teacher will be

marked as a ‘non attempt’ and penalised accordingly.

l. Attendance. Each student is expected to attend all timetabled lessons for the subject.

During class lessons each student should, apply themselves with diligence and

sustained effort‟ to all learning activities. Any period of absence will be noted by the

class teacher and recorded as part of the school administrative process.

Page 5: WHITEBRIDGE HIGH SCHOOL€¦ · Do not take bags, notepaper, exam papers or any other item from the exam room. Upon the supervisor’s instructions students will leave the exam room

Page 5

m. Class tasks not completed and lessons not attended means that a student is not

“following the course developed by the Board of Studies”. The class teacher,

through the Head Teacher, will advise parents of unsatisfactory attendance

patterns through Letters of Concern and official Board of Studies notifications.

Unsatisfactory attendance is a valid reason for the school to decide that the student

has not “achieved some or all of the course outcomes”.

n. Any students who wish to make inquiries or who have any problems regarding

assessment procedures should see the Year 11 Deputy Principal or Head Teacher

Administration responsible for Board of Studies matters.

Satisfactory Completion of a course.

The Board of Studies states that

a) 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 :

i. followed the course developed or endorsed by the Board; and

ii. applied themselves with diligence and sustained effort to the set tasks and

experiences provided in the course by the school; and

iii. achieved some or all of the course outcomes.

b) the Principal must be assured that a student’s attendance has been such that the course completion

requirements have been met.

c) If at any time it appears that a student is at risk of being given an ‘N’ (Non-completion of

course requirements) Determination in any course, the Principal must warn the student as soon

as possible and advise the parent or guardian in writing. These notifications can be given if

students do not meet either attendance or academic requirements.

Students and parents are reminded that in the case of a student receiving an 'N'

Determination, the student has the right to appeal to the Board of Studies. In this case the

appeal must be submitted through the school.

It is important that both students and parents be aware and fully understand the contents and

implications of this assessment scheme. To help achieve this:

Assessment booklets will be discussed and distributed in term one.

Students should compose their own unique timetable of assessment tasks using the

calendar provided

Students must sign an acknowledgement slip on receipt of this booklet.

Page 6: WHITEBRIDGE HIGH SCHOOL€¦ · Do not take bags, notepaper, exam papers or any other item from the exam room. Upon the supervisor’s instructions students will leave the exam room

Exam Protocol

All exams are considered to be an essential part of the assessment process.

Mobile phones are not permitted in any exams. Students must not bring them into the exam

room. The school takes no responsibility for the care or safe keeping of the phones and students are advised to leave them at home.

Students may take only the necessary writing equipment into exams.

Students are not permitted to take into the exam room bags, notebooks or anything that could

assist them in answering the exam questions.

Students are not permitted to speak to each other once they have entered the exam room. If a

student has a question they must raise their hand and speak only to the supervisor who

responds.

Students must not behave in a manner that could be detrimental to any other student in the

exam room.

Students are not permitted to leave examinations early.

Exam Evacuation Procedure

If the signal for evacuation of the school occurs during an exam the following procedures must

be followed.

Do not leave until instructed by the supervisor.

Do not take bags, notepaper, exam papers or any other item from the exam room.

Upon the supervisor’s instructions students will leave the exam room in a single file, spaced

2 metres apart.

Depending on the achievement of units of competency, the possible qualification outcome is Certificate II Construction Pathways CPC20211 or a Statement of Attainment towards Certificate II Construction Pathways CPC20211

The exam events will be confirmed by your teacher as they may be used for the assessment of competencies and /or BOSTES reporting requirements.

* Selected units only to be confirmed by your teacher.

** Your assessor will gather evidence for these units from this assessment. Evidence is required from other assessment events

The assessment components in this course are competency based. This means that students need to demonstrate that they have gained

and can apply the specific knowledge and skills of each unit of competency. Competency assessment is graded as “not yet competent” or

“competent’. In some cases other descriptive words may be used leading up to “competent”. This means a course mark is not allocated.

*Selected units only to be confirmed by your teacher.

The assessment components in this course are competency based. This means that students need to demonstrate that they have

gained and can apply the specific knowledge and skills of each unit of competency. Competency assessment is graded as “not yet

competent” or “competent’. In some cases other descriptive words may be used leading up to “competent”. This means a course

mark is not allocated.

School Name: Whitebridge High School

Metal & Engineering 2018 Student Competency Assessment Schedule

Depending on the achievement of units of competency, the possible qualification outcome is Certificate I Engineering MEM10105 or a

Statement of Attainment towards Certificate I Engineering MEM10105

The exam events will be confirmed by your teacher as they may be used for the assessment of competencies and /or BOSTES reporting

requirements.

* Selected units only to be confirmed by your teacher.

The assessment components in this course are competency based. This means that students need to demonstrate that they have gained and can

apply the specific knowledge and skills of each unit of competency. Competency assessment is graded as “not yet competent” or “competent’.

In some cases other descriptive words may be used leading up to “competent”. This means a course mark is not allocated.
