In these unprecedented times in education, classroom instruction as we have previously known has been altered due to the Coronavirus outbreak. Determining levels of academic achievement has been a challenge in remote learning environments as conversations, observations, and assessments are limited. Therefore an Interim Semester 1 Report has been developed to reflect student engagement in learning undertaken, during both classroom and remote learning, over the course of Term 1 and up to the middle of Term 2, 2020. The Key Learning Areas (KLAs) of Religious Education, English, and Mathematics have been the key focus for classroom and remote learning experiences delivered during Terms 1 and 2. 

Previously, schools have reported to parents/carers twice per year, reporting on student progress and achievement levels (A-E) of the Common Grade Scale for each Key Learning Area (KLA). Due to the need for schools to teach remotely, valid assessment of student learning has been challenging. Therefore in semester one, teachers will report to parents/carers on each child's 'effort' level and 'engagement' for Religious Education, English and Mathematics only and include five comments for each KLA. Please note, there will be no general comment or record of student attendance on the report.

Any parent or carer who would prefer a telephone conversation during this time, please contact your child's class teacher.

Kindergarten students only receive a Semester 2 Report. Learning Engagement Conversations will still be held for Kindergarten parents and carers this term.
