PRELIMINARY AND HSC COURSES, VOCATIONAL COURSES AND ENDORSED COURSE GUIDE AND ASSESSMENT POLICY
2.
B.
CHANGE OF SUBJECT OR COURSE Students who wish to change a subject / course must obtain a Course Change Form and a Board of Studies Notification of Change form from the office. Complete both forms and return them to the Head Teacher in charge of the timetable. The student will then attend an interview with senior executive staff, to discuss likely outcomes. Students are advised that such changes will not be implemented until authorized by the Principal. Students are also advised that such applications may not necessarily be successful.
C.
ASSESSMENT GUIDELINES 1. General Assessment tasks indicate achievement over a wide range of syllabus outcomes. Students will receive the following advice about assessment in each course before assessment begins. (a) the practical and written tasks, such as tests, assignments and projects, on which their assessments are to be based. (b) the weighting to be allocated to each task. (c) an indication as to when the task will be held. 2. Notification Of Tasks In addition to the schedule of assessment tasks, the college will provide adequate notice of the precise timing of each assessment task. Generally, at least two Weeks notice of the details of a task will be given. NB If a student is absent from school or a lesson it is the students responsibility to check if any information relating to Assessment Tasks has been communicated. 3. Change To Tasks Change to tasks about content, nature or organization, will be communicated in writing. 4. VET Mandatory Work Placement As with all other HSC courses, students undertaking VET courses may be deemed to have either completed or not completed course requirements. It should be noted that if a student fails to undertake any mandatory work placement component it may be determined that the student has not made a genuine attempt to complete course requirements. In this case the principal can indicate that the course has not been satisfactorily completed and the student may be issued with an N determination.
5.
Completion Of Tasks The Board of Studies hopes that, through the process of continuing assessment, it will be able to reward sustained effort on the part of senior students and sample a wider (and, therefore, more accurate) range of student attainments. A sound performance in assessment tasks over the four terms also helps to prepare students for the actual HSC which will modify their school assessment. It should be realised that the assessment program places a responsibility upon students to complete the assessment tasks. At Wyndham College the following policies towards missed tasks have been determined.
Students who complete all aspects of the assessment task and submit it on or before the due date are eligible for the full mark allocated for the task. Students who attend an assessment task which is to be completed at school are eligible for the full mark allocated for the task. Students who fail to submit an assessment task by the due date must be given zero if they have no valid reason. Students who fail to attend on the specified date an assessment task which is to be completed at school must be given zero if they have no valid reason. Students who fail to submit an assessment task by the due date, but who have a valid reason (such as sickness or approved leave validated by appropriate documentation) are eligible for the full mark allocated to the task if they have completed the task. A medical certificate may not be accepted as excusing late submission of tasks where the task was issued well in advance of the illness and the medical certificate shows that the student was not incapacitated for a large part of that time. You should submit whatever progress work has been completed at that time e.g. drafts, plans, rough work etc. This will be assessed by the teacher and may be awarded marks. PLEASE NOTE: YOU MUST SUBMIT THE TASK ON THE DAY YOU RETURN TO SCHOOL. Students who fail to attend an assessment task which is to be completed at school, but who have a valid reason (e.g. sickness) must be given an opportunity to do the task or an equivalent task at a later date. In exceptional circumstances it may be necessary to give a mark based on the students other assessment tasks. These students are eligible for the full mark allocated to the task. Students who submit an incomplete task on or before the due date are to be allocated a mark. This mark is to be based on the proportion of the task completed. The task does not automatically receive a zero mark. As an example, if the task had six equally weighted components and a student

vi.
vii.
attempted only three of these, that student would be eligible for up to 50% of the mark allocated to the task. viii. If a student believes factors beyond their control, e.g. sickness or family misfortune, have affected their ability to do their best on a task they may apply for an extension by seeing the appropriate Head Teacher at least 24 hours before the due date. NO EXTENSION WILL BE GRANTED TO APPLICATIONS RECEIVED ON THE DAY A TASK IS DUE. If a student submits a task which is deemed to be a nonserious attempt by the teacher, then a zero mark will be awarded. During examination sessions, any portable electronic devices, including iPods, are not permitted and only BOS approved equipment, such as calculators, may be used. Hard copies (not computer files) of written task responses are to be submitted unless the task stipulates otherwise. It is the students responsibility to have work printed in time for submission. Printing of major works can be organised through the school provided it is submitted one week before the due date. Computer / Printer failure cannot be used as a reason to submit work late. Where a student is going to be absent, the student or parent/guardian should contact the Head Teacher or class teacher if possible, before the task takes place. If unexpectedly absent on the day of the task the student should phone the school and inform the Deputy Principal, or the Head Teacher of the subject. Workplacement is not a valid reason to submit work late. All students on Workplacement must make arrangements to submit the work by the due date. YOUR RESPONSIBILITY IF YOU ARE ABSENT WHEN A TASK IS DUE Students who are absent from examinations, classroom tasks, field studies, etc. MUST submit a written explanation for the absence, preferably with a doctors certificate, for the consideration of the Head Teacher or to the Deputy Principal if the Head Teacher is not available. This explanation must be handed in on the MORNING of the students return to school, otherwise a zero mark will be recorded for the task. THIS SHOULD BE SUBMITTED ON A MISADVENTURE FORM AVAILABLE AT THE FRONT OFFICE. If the Head Teacher decides that the student should do the original or a substitute task, the student can be required to sit for the task IMMEDIATELY. For example, if you are sick on Friday when an assessment task is due and you return to school on Monday, you must submit or attempt the task as soon as practicable on the Monday.

6.
Appeals And Reviews Where students are dissatisfied with any aspect of the assessment procedure, they should in the first instance approach the Head Teacher of the subject concerned. If the problem cannot be resolved at the faculty level, it may be referred to the Assessment Review Committee (Principal, Deputy of the Year not concerned and the Head Teacher Secondary Studies), who will convene to consider the particular case. Queries about the marks awarded for a task CAN ONLY be considered if made when the task is handed back to the class.
7.
Malpractice Students who cheat in any way, including plagiarism, make a nonserious attempt, or truant for an assessment task will score zero for the task. In addition, the task will be recorded as a nonattempt in terms of the requirement that students complete tasks which must total more than 50% of available marks. Note: Cheating occurs when a student attempts to gain an unfair advantage. The Principal will make all such judgements in consultation with the Review Committee. Plagiarism is the submitting of work that is not wholly your own, e.g. submitting slabs of text from the internet or a textbook.
8.
NonSerious Attempt Students studying an HSC course must make a genuine attempt to complete course requirements. It is a matter for the teachers professional judgment to determine whether a student has made a genuine attempt to complete these requirements.
Students who do not make a genuine attempt must be given zero and will be required to complete a substitute task. In the case of competencybased courses, where a student has not successfully completed any units of competency, it is a matter for the teachers professional judgment to determine whether the attempts made by the student to complete the course are genuine. Where students are studying an HSC course that includes a requisite examination, students must sit for and make a genuine attempt at the examination. If it is determined that a student has not made a genuine attempt to complete course requirements, the principal must indicate on the appropriate documentation that the course has not been satisfactorily completed. 9. N Determinations The Board has delegated to principals the authority to determine if students seeking the award of the Higher School Certificate at their school have satisfactorily completed each Board Developed and / or Board
8
Endorsed Course in which they are enrolled in accordance with the requirements issued by the Board. Principals therefore will determine if there is sufficient evidence that each student has applied themself with diligence and sustained effort to the set tasks and experiences provided in the course by the school. Principals may determine an appropriate attendance pattern(s) that will allow each student to achieve the outcomes of each course being studied. Principals may determine that, as a result of absence, the course completion criteria may not be met. Clearly, absences will be regarded seriously by principals who will give students early warning of the consequences of such absences. Warning letters will relate the students absence to the noncompletion of course requirements. 10. Warnings If at any time it appears that a student is at risk of being given an N (No completion of course requirements) determination in any course, including VET courses, the principal will warn the student as soon as possible and advise the parent or guardian (if the student is under 18 years of age) in writing. This warning will be given in time for the problem to be corrected and will provide advice about the possible consequences of an N determination in a course on Higher School Certificate eligibility. Students who have not complied with the requirements for satisfactory completion of a course at the time of finalizing assessments cannot be regarded as having satisfactorily completed the course. 11. Head Teacher Responsibility Ensure that: components and weightings are translated into appropriate tasks a record of each task is maintained in faculty files two records of Total % are kept (not in the same place) student achievement is monitored, ensuring appropriate written warnings are given if Assessment Tasks are not done and that particular attention is paid to students in danger of an N Determination inform the Principal (or her nominee) about any student whose performance is causing concern course attendance rolls are kept

Within the Stage 6 Life Skills Courses, the individual transition planning process will determine the educational priorities for each student, from which modules and outcomes are studied and content covered. Assessment will take account of the individual ways that students demonstrate achievement of syllabus objectives and outcomes based on the content covered in the course. To cater for such individuality, a range of assessment materials will be used, appropriate for the outcomes to be measured and relevant to students capabilities. Assessment is ongoing and will include: Observation of participation Observation of performance of practical activities Work experience reports Oral reports and presentations Group work Journal writing Written tasks Students entered for Life Skills Courses may achieve the designated outcomes independently or with support.
