Curriculum Matters- Years 10-12
Term One Progress Reports
In the final week of school, all Carmel students will receive a progress report based on judgements around our Consistent Committed Learner Qualities Matrix. These judgements will give insights around Carmel students attitudes and behaviours towards their learning. Parents will be able to find these through The Learning Dashboard via the BCE connect application.
While academic results aren’t included for our 7-12 learners, I would encourage all families to talk with your students about their results. The student planner provides a section towards the back that allows students and teachers to communicate academic results. I would encourage all families to engage in this process so that you can see the most up to date academic achievements of your learners.
Year 11 Examination Block
At the time of writing this, our Year 11’s are just over halfway done with their first block exams. I am happy to report that their diligent approach to these formal exams has been exceptional each day so far. The Consistent Commitment to Learning modelled by our Year 11 cohort is a testament to their diligence, respect, resilience and positive relationships and it’s been a pleasure to see our college pillars in action each day in the exam rooms.
Year 12 Assessment
The Year 12 Examination Block will be running throughout next week (week 9) from Wednesday 26th March to Friday 28th March. The examination schedule was emailed out to all Year 12 students, parents, and caregivers. Importantly, I encourage all parents to review the examination schedule with their children and ensure students know the exam dates and times and venues for each subject which they study.
You can find the examination schedule on the parent portal under the assessment calendar tab in the documents section or below:
During the examination block, students are only required to attend school for scheduled examinations. Normal timetabled classes will not be running. If your sons and daughters need to remain on campus either before or after a scheduled examination, they must report to the College Library where we will be providing a supervised study space for Year 12 students.
During the examination block period, if your son or daughter cannot attend a scheduled examination, they will be required to complete an Application for Special Provisions form. Supporting evidence – for example a medical certificate - will need to be provided to outline reasoning as to why the assessment could not be completed on the scheduled date.
If you have any questions about the Year 12 examinations in Week 9, please contact me at the College – cher.williams@carmelcollege.qld.edu.au
