School Reports

Many thanks to our teachers who continue to work tirelessly preparing the Semester 2 reports for the students. This semester student reports will be supported with classroom teacher comments which will outline student success and areas for development.  

Student reports will be released via Compass on Friday, 6th December 2024. It is recommended that you print your child’s report out, particularly our Year 6 students.

To access your child’s report please go to the Compass app and click on the image of your child in the top left-hand corner. Select the Reports tab in the top right-hand corner and then select 2024 - Semester Two to view their report.

Please be mindful that the A-E scale is very different to what it looked like years ago. Our Kindergarten students will receive an alternative scale to A-E as outlined below. 

Please take some time to familiarise yourself with the guidelines for assessment and reporting.

When a student receives a ‘C’ grade it means they have demonstrated the quality of learning described in the Achievement Standard based on the content studied in the reporting period. If a student receives a ‘C’ in both semester 1 and 2 reports it indicates that the student has made progress and learned new knowledge and skills based on the new and more challenging material studied. 

 

A student’s report will list a grade for each subject studied. 

The following A-E descriptors will appear on the report: 

  • A demonstrating outstanding achievement of the standard 
  • B demonstrating a high achievement of the standard 
  • C demonstrating achievement of the standard 
  • D demonstrating partial achievement of the standard 
  • E demonstrating limited achievement of the standard.
