Assessment and reporting

Our teachers use a variety of strategies to assess student learning.

Teachers observe students' work in class and look closely at tasks throughout the year. They also formally assess a student's achievement based on the outcomes described in the syllabus of the subject.

As a parent or carer, you’ll receive a written report twice a year. It gives you a clear picture of your child’s achievements – what they know and can do.

In Years 7 to 10, we use the common grade scale in reporting. In Year 11, we use the Preliminary grade scale.

Vocational Education and Training (VET) courses are assessed on achievement of competencies.

Assessments

We provide detailed information to students about what we expect from them throughout the year and how their work will be assessed. Students have a number of formal assessments throughout their schooling.

2021 Preliminary Assessment Schedule

These booklets have been prepared to inform all students and parents of the requirements for successful completion of their studies and learning.  The aim is to clearly show assessment procedures and schedules in use at Narrandera High School.

Students (and parents) are encouraged to take the time to read carefully and make sure they understand the assessments requirements in each of their subjects.

Assessment Extension Application (7-12)

Student assessments must be handed in by 3:00pm on their due date.

If misadventure or illness is applicable, in these cases a form is available from the Deputy Principal or Head Teacher.  Wherever possible this form should be completed and discussed in advance.
