Assessment Schedule YEAR 9 Semester

Transcription

1 Assessment Schedule YEAR 9 Semester Middle School Assessment Schedule Guidelines 1 This schedule contains information on ALL assessment items that will be used to calculate your semester result. While your teachers may choose to do additional class tests and tasks, results from these items will not be used in the calculation of your final result. 2 Task and Criteria Sheets for ALL assignments will be available to you on Moodle (see our website). Please check with your teacher that you know exactly what is required of you before you start work on an assignment. 3 You are obliged to show your teacher an assignment draft before embarking on final copies. Your teacher will give you valuable feedback at this stage to assist you in completing your assignment. 4 Should you have a valid reason for requesting an extension of time on an assignment you must hand your teacher a written request, at least two days prior to the due date, which will be discussed with the Department Head. Please note that leaving an assignment at home or experiencing printing difficulties will not be viewed as a valid reason.
