The Wingham High School Core Values are an important part of our everyday business, including teaching and learning. In your final years of school, the core values can be demonstrated in the following ways:

Respect

• Respect yourself by striving to achieve your personal best, wearing your uniform with pride and completing all of your tasks.

• Respect your teachers and classmates by giving your best in your lessons - this is a time of high pressure for many so please give everyone the chance they deserve to succeed.

• Respect the school environment - look after what we have at Wingham High School. Everything we have here is important to teaching and learning and needs to be available for future year groups.

Trust

• Follow the school rules - it’s simple and your teachers expect the best from you. Please stay in school grounds and vehicles are not to be used during school hours.

• Complete your assessment tasks on time -this will allow you to achieve your best possible mark and allow you to achieve your best in the HSC.

• Make sure the work is your own - when completing assessment tasks and examinations make sure the work submitted is your own and remember you have completed ‘All My Own Work’ so you know the importance of this.

Fairness

• Be fair to yourself - participate in lessons, discuss concepts, stay on task, challenge yourself and be prepared. This will enhance and consolidate your understanding of some challenging concepts this year.

• Be fair to others - listen to opinions, be involved in discussions and debates, get feedback from others on your progress and support others in your lessons.

• Be fair to the school environment - this is a learning and working environment. It is healthy to set yourself a challenge and get feedback on your progress.

Positivity

• Get involved - your year group will be raising money for a charity this year. Help out by lending a hand and volunteering to raise funds.

• Be involved - there will be many opportunities to demonstrate leadership this year. Attending the athletics carnival and swimming carnival is a great start. There will also be many curriculum based excursions and sporting opportunities.

• Set a great example - the junior years are following your lead. Show them how to behave, and wear your uniform with pride.

INTRODUCTION

This booklet gives you information about assessment and how it will affect you during your study of your Preliminary HSC courses. It is important that you read the information carefully and discuss the contents with your teachers and your parents/carers. Much useful advice for both students and parents is available from the Board of Studies (BOS) website at www.boardofstudies.nsw.edu.au/. This booklet is also available on the school website at http://www.wingham-h.schools.nsw.edu.au/curriculum-activities/assessment-reportingb and contains many hyperlinks to relevant sections of the Board of Studies website.

WHEN DO ASSESSMENTS COMMENCE?

Assessment of Preliminary HSC courses begin in Term 1 and is completed at the end of Term 3 (of the same year) with the Preliminary Final Examination in Weeks 9 and 10.

WHY HAVE ASSESSMENT TASKS?

Assessment tasks will:

• help you learn, expand your knowledge and encourage you to challenge yourself

• show how much you have learnt and where you need to improve

• prove you have satisfactorily completed a course

• contribute to your final HSC mark.

Assessment tasks allow you to show what you know, understand and can do, in ways that may not be possible in a written examination. School-based assessments also give you the chance to address any weak areas in your knowledge before you sit your external HSC examination.

HOW CAN I BEST MANAGE MY ASSESSMENT TASKS?

• Be aware of due dates. Keep an up-to-date diary of all assessment tasks and other commitments.

• Use a wall calendar or small whiteboard in an area such as your family room or your kitchen to note due dates if you want others in your household to help you remember deadlines.

• Start tasks early so that you can ask for help if you need it.

• Break tasks into a series of smaller steps and set deadlines for completing each step.

• Record the sources of information you use as you find them so that acknowledgements do not become a major task at the end.

• Frequently save and back up any work completed on a computer. The failure of technology is generally not an acceptable excuse for submitting your work late.

• Keep all your earlier drafts and copies of your resources.

• Keep a copy of any work you submit for marking

THE RECORD OF SCHOOL ACHIEVEMENT (RoSA)

The Record of School Achievement (RoSA) is the credential for students who leave school after Year 10 and before they receive their Higher School Certificate (HSC). The RoSA is a cumulative record of all academic achievement.

Page 6: Prelim Assessment Booklet 2018€¦ · Assessment task moratoriums 6 Student progress 6 Assessment rankings 7 What to do if - there is an unforeseen family/personal event on the day

5

The RoSA is designed to record and credential all of a secondary school student’s academic results up until the HSC.

• The RoSA will detail grades for courses a student completes right up until the time they leave school.

• If a student leaves school before receiving a grade in Year 11 or Year 12 courses, their RoSA will record the courses they commenced.

• This measure acknowledges the fact that some students begin senior secondary study but then leave school for employment or other training opportunities before receiving their HSC.

HOW DO I GET A RoSA IF I LEAVE BEFORE COMPLETING YEAR 12?

If you intend to leave school before the HSC you need to notify the school of your intention to leave (parental permission is required) and complete the sign out process.

The school notifies NESA who will send your RoSA to the address they have on file for you. You also have the option of taking literacy and numeracy tests and you can use your results as evidence of these skills when you leave school. You need to see your Principal.

MEETING HSC ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS

Satisfactorily complete Years 9 and 10 or gain qualifications that satisfy NESA. Attend a NSW Education Standards Authority recognised school. Complete HSC ALL MY OWN WORK before submission of any work for the preliminary course. Sit for and make a serious attempt at the required HSC examinations. Patterns of study must include. Six units of Board Developed Courses. Two units of English or English Studies. Three courses of two or more units.

TYPES OF ASSESSMENT TASKS

These tasks are the Preliminary HSC Course Assessment Program tasks. Your results in these tasks will contribute to the grades awarded to you for your preliminary courses or a RoSA if you leave before the end of Year 12. You will receive plenty of notice about these tasks and the school policy regarding absence, dishonesty etc. will apply to them. These tasks might include essays, oral presentations, topic tests, assignments, group performances, presentations and examinations. At various times you will also be required to complete assignments, essays, homework and tests that are a normal part of your course work. You MUST complete all these with diligence and sustained effort to meet NESA requirements. They also help you to learn and progress more effectively. Tasks completed outside of class time (at home tasks) will be due on the first day of the school week at/or before 9:00am, unless otherwise negotiated with your classroom teacher. Tasks submitted after this time will attract a late penalty of a loss of 50% of the awarded mark per day (or part day) late. All tasks must be submitted to avoid an N award (non-award) in the subject long-term. You must still complete the task to retain satisfactory status in the course.

ASSESSMENT SCHEDULES

Each faculty produces an assessment schedule for Preliminary HSC Courses. Each assessment schedule will include the:

• type of tasks to be completed and the syllabus outcomes being assessed;

• relative weight of each assessment task in the total assessment; and

• approximate timing of each task (e.g. Week 6 Term 2).

Your assessment schedule for each subject is in the back of this booklet. The subject teacher will also distribute assessment plans for each subject to classes. You will be given a minimum of two weeks notice of the specific time/date of an assessment task. The dates of some tasks may be changed slightly for your benefit from the dates initially notified. In these cases, the changes will need to be negotiated between you and the teacher involved in consultation with the head teacher of the faculty. The stage deputy must then approve this. N.B. Tasks CANNOT be negotiated into non-assessable periods. It is your responsibility to be familiar with your assessment schedules. You need to use this information to ensure you have all the relevant information relating to an assessment task well in advance of the due date for a given task. VET courses differ from other courses in their assessment. Students will be assessed on their ability to demonstrate various course competencies. These can be done at set times (as for other courses) or may be on an ongoing basis. Students studying VET courses will also be required to undertake school-based examination. Long-term assessment tasks, which are scheduled over an extended period, will have a progressive assessment component to monitor your progress. You will be notified of these progressive components of assessment.

ASSESSMENT TASK MORATORIUMS

No assessment tasks will be scheduled in the two weeks prior to an examination period or in the week following an examination period.

STUDENT PROGRESS

You can be told your score and your ranking for individual assessment tasks. You should be aware that merely adding up individual marks for assessment tasks will not necessarily give you the same mark as that determined by the school for a given subject. These individual marks may be standardised and weighted prior to their addition. Assessment tasks from the preliminary courses do not count towards HSC course assessments. Student Competency Log Books are always available to VET students to monitor progress. Staff will notify you regularly of your progress through the competencies. It is your responsibility to ensure your log books are signed off as competencies are completed.

ASSESSMENT RANKINGS

After each assessment task has been marked, you will be given an assessment ranking for that task. In the HSC year, you will be given a formal notification of the progressive assessment ranking on each school report you receive. Due to the competency-based nature of the assessment, VET courses do not issue assessment ranks. Student competencies are formally recorded in a school register and in Student Competency Log Books. These are nationally recognised documents, which you take with you when you leave the course.

WHAT TO DO IF …

There is an unforeseen family/personal emergency on the day of an assessment task:

• In cases where an emergency causes you to miss an assessment task, formal supporting documentation will be required to support your application for special consideration. You MUST contact the school before 9:00am on the day and ask to speak to your teacher. Where this is not possible, a message will be taken. You will need to attach your documentation to a misadventure application form (see page 8).

You are sick on the day of an assessment task:

• In cases of illness, a medical certificate will be required to support your case. You MUST contact the school before 9:00am on the day and ask to speak to your teacher. Where this is not possible, a message will be taken. You will need to attach your medical certificate to a misadventure application form (see below).

• If you miss an assessment task because of a satisfactorily explained absence, either a substitute task may be set or the same task may be set providing that you do not gain an advantage over other students or, in extreme cases, an estimated mark may be authorised by the principal.

• If you are absent for a task for a legitimate reason, you must report to the relevant teacher on the day that you return to school to produce evidence of such legitimacy and, if necessary, to organise a suitable time for the task to be undertaken.

You are attending a school based/sporting excursion on the day of an assessment task:

• In the case of known absences e.g. sporting visits, you must notify the class teacher of the upcoming absence as soon as the information becomes available. You then MUST negotiate, before the day of the absence, a suitable time for the task to be completed. For examinations, in most cases you will be expected to sit the examination prior to the absence.

ILLNESS AND MISADVENTURE APPLICATIONS

In exceptional circumstances, if you are unable to complete an assessment task you may apply for misadventure. If you wish to apply, you must immediately collect a Misadventure Application form from the Head Teacher Welfare and adhere to the following procedures:

• You or your parent must contact the faculty head teacher before 9:00am on the day of the task and advise of the circumstances involved if the application is based on serious unforeseen illness or circumstances. Supporting documentation will be required.

• In the case of illness, you must provide documentation including a current medical certificate.

• If the task is a home task, you must submit as soon as possible or when you return to school (as negotiated with the teacher). If you are absent on the day that an at home task is due to be completed you may be required to email your work to your teacher to demonstrate the completion of the task and to ensure no unfair advantage. It is not acceptable that you submit a doctor’s

Page 9: Prelim Assessment Booklet 2018€¦ · Assessment task moratoriums 6 Student progress 6 Assessment rankings 7 What to do if - there is an unforeseen family/personal event on the day

8

certificate for the day that a home task is due and be granted an extension without proof that work has already been completed on the task.

• Written applications should be submitted as early as possible to the relevant head teacher.

You should note the following:

• If work is done on computer, hand written notes/draft printouts/backups to thumb drive or external hard drive, should be kept as proof the work is in progress if there is a malfunction.

• You should not assume that an extension will be granted.

• You may be asked to complete a substitute task.

SATISFACTORY COMPLETION OF COURSES

You need to satisfactorily complete a minimum of 12 units in the Preliminary HSC. NESA has produced guidelines for all schools on every subject examination by the HSC, (NESA STRONGER HSC ASSESSSMENT). These guidelines provide teachers with a framework for producing assessment plans covering the various components that are to be assessed. Each faculty at Wingham High School has prepared an assessment calendar that is included in this booklet. To have successfully achieved the preliminary accreditation you will need to adhere to the following guidelines: You will be considered to have satisfactorily completed a course if, in the principal’s view, there is sufficient evidence that you have:

• Followed the course developed or endorsed by the Board of Studies.

• Applied yourself with diligence and sustained effort to the set task experiences provided in the course by the school.

• Achieved some or all of the course outcomes.

Attendance in relation to the satisfactory completion of a course • You must attend class regularly in order to achieve the outcomes of each course being

studied.

• If your attendance is called into question, you will be required to prove to the principal’s satisfaction, following a review of your performance, that you are meeting the course criteria.

Completion of Preliminary/HSC internal assessment tasks: • NESA expects you to attempt all assessment tasks set.

• NESA requires you to follow an assessment program and have an assessment mark submitted

irrespective of the number of units in which you may be enrolled. VET students only have assessment marks submitted to the BOS if they are sitting for the optional course examination.

• The minimum requirement is that you make a genuine attempt at assessment tasks which

contribute in excess of 50% of available marks in that course. VET students need to complete ALL set competencies and work placement requirements to be eligible for accreditation.

N WARNINGS AND N AWARDS

If you do not meet all of your responsibilities in each course, you may receive an N warning letter. Where a student receives more than one N warning letter, they may be given an N award (non-completion of course requirements). The course does not appear on your final certification. If at any time you run the risk of not meeting your responsibility in any HSC course, contact will be made with parents/carers (if you are under 18). Specifically, contact (by phone and then letter) will be made whenever:

• a zero is awarded for any assessment task

• you are in danger of failing to complete tasks worth more than 50% of the course assessment

• your absences begin to result in course outcomes not being met

• poor effort begins to result in course outcomes not being achieved. The Board of Studies has produced a standard letter which schools are required to use in these circumstances. If you do not satisfactorily complete 12 units of study in Year 11, and 10 units of study in Year 12, you will not qualify for the award of a HSC in 2019.

STUDENT APPEALS

If you have a genuine concern about the mark awarded for a particular task, you should, in the first instance discuss this matter with the class teacher. If you still wish to appeal the mark, you must take the task to the head teacher and lodge a written appeal detailing the reasons for the appeal. This must be done within five days of the return of the task. The decision of the head teacher will be final. VET competencies are assessed both formally (in tasks) and informally (ongoing). If you fail to reach a certain competency when being assessed, further opportunities may be negotiated with the teacher and head teacher depending upon other course commitments and the availability of appropriate resources. If a competency is being assessed by an outside provider then the satisfactory completion of the competency must be demonstrated at the time of formal assessment by that provider (e.g. TAFE for Chemical Users module) and the availability of appropriate resources. Failing this, it becomes your responsibility to negotiate alternative arrangements with that provider.

OVERALL COURSE RANKING

If you consider that your placement in the rank order for any course is not correct you should immediately contact your teacher and/or head teacher and apply in writing for the ranking to be reviewed. The review can only be requested on the basis of the school’s procedures for determining the final assessment mark, not on the marks awarded for individual tasks.

MALPRACTICE

You must be aware that assessment tasks have to be your own work. If any dishonesty (such as copying, plagiarism, unauthorised use of notes, use of electronic devices or mobile phone) is detected in relation to any assessment task, the student(s) will have a zero mark recorded. The school may convene a meeting of relevant staff, parents and yourself to discuss the situation before a final decision is made. A letter will be sent to parents/carers confirming the details of the decision made by the school. The Board of Studies requires all Stage 6 (Year 11 and 12) students to have completed the ‘All My Own Work’ course before commencing senior study.

Page 11: Prelim Assessment Booklet 2018€¦ · Assessment task moratoriums 6 Student progress 6 Assessment rankings 7 What to do if - there is an unforeseen family/personal event on the day

10

The Board of Studies describes malpractice as … Cheating, or malpractice, is dishonest behaviour by a student that gives them an unfair advantage over others. The following are some examples of behaviour (plagiarism) considered to be cheating:

• copying, buying, stealing or borrowing part or all of someone else’s work, and presenting it as your own

• using material directly from books, journals, CDs or the internet without acknowledging the source

• submitting work that contains a large and unacknowledged contribution from another person, such as a parent, coach, tutor or author

• paying someone to write or prepare material that is associated with a task, such as drafts, process diaries, logs and journals.

What is plagiarism? Plagiarism is when you pretend that you have written, created or developed a piece of work that someone else originated. It is cheating, it is dishonest and it will jeopardise your HSC results. Cheating in school assessment tasks also has serious consequences. You may receive zero marks for the task, and depending on the task, you may lose that course from your HSC award. Your school may refuse to certify practical works or projects as ‘authentic work’ before sending them to the Board of Studies. Your school may take further disciplinary action.

NON-SERIOUS ATTEMPT

You must make a serious attempt at all tasks. Non-serious attempts receive a zero mark. A non-serious attempt includes irrelevant work, or offensive or inappropriate language or material. A non-serious attempt in any part of any subject in the HSC examination might result in a disqualification from that subject or the entire HSC. Non-completion of VET competencies results in no formal recognition in the competency logbook for that competency. A letter warning you of a potential N award will be issued and you will be expected to redo the task to a satisfactory standard in order to satisfy course requirements.

SPECIAL PROVISIONS

The Board of Studies expects that schools will offer provisions to students with special needs in course work, assessment tasks, and in-school examinations. The Board of Studies, however, can offer no guarantee that school-elected provisions will apply in the HSC examination, as each application is individually assessed to ensure consistency and equity. If you believe that you have a special need that is affecting your performance, talk to your teacher. You should also discuss your concerns with the Learning Support Team, the school counselors, your year adviser, the deputy principals or principal. Once the special need is identified, testing can occur and application for suitable provisions be made to the Board of Studies. Health and safety components are mandatory for ALL VET courses. Students must abide by these requirements including uniforms and personal safety equipment.
