Assessment
and Reporting

At St. Martin of Tours Primary School, assessment and reporting is an important part of Learning and Teaching. Teachers use a variety of assessment tools to monitor and evaluate the learning needs of their students.

Some of the ways Assessment and Reporting occurs includes:

• Two written reports will be provided for parents, one per semester. These reports provide progress against Victorian Curriculum standards. The reports indicate areas of strength and areas requiring additional support. Teachers also provide future directions in learning suggesting support or extension strategies.
• Written reports are generated in the COMPASS digital platform. They are accessible to parents via COMPASS.
• Learning Conversations are organised twice a year, end of Terms 1 and 3. Students, parents/carers and teachers are all involved in setting directions for the next stage of learning.
• Teachers use continuous formative assessments to keep parents informed about their child’s learning throughout the year. They will continue to inform parents of their child’s progress and if any support or extension is required.
• The National Assessment Program- Literacy and Numeracy (NAPLAN) will provide parents and teachers of participating students with reports in the relevant learning areas in Years 3 and 5.
• Students requiring support or adjustments will have a Personalised Learning Plan where teachers will set goals and review these in a Program Support Group Meeting.
