1. INTRODUCTION This document provides information relating to the assessment of Higher School Certificate courses at Albion Park High School. 2. HIGHER SCHOOL CERTIFICATE COURSE ASSESSMENT School based assessment for Higher School Certificate Courses is carried out to determine if students have satisfactorily completed requirements for each Higher School Certificate Course being studied. 3. THE ASSESSMENT PROGRAM The Assessment Program will commence from Week 6 of Term 4, 2019 and conclude at the end of Term 3, 2020. To coordinate the timing of assessment tasks in different courses the following procedures will apply: • each student will be provided with an assessment task schedule which will provide

an indication when assessment tasks in each course will occur (See attached schedule).

• class teachers will provide students with a schedule of assessment tasks for each

individual course specifying the various tasks (tests, assignments, etc) and the marks allocated for each task.

While the schedule is provided as a guide to when assessment tasks will occur, unforeseen circumstances may result in a change of dates for an assessment task, which will be made in writing. Where possible, students should expect at least two weeks notice of the change of date for that assessment task. 4. ASSESSMENT ADVICE FOR HSC VET COURSES Assessment in VET courses is competency based. This means that you need to demonstrate that you have gained, and can apply the specific knowledge and skills for the unit of competency to be deemed competent in that unit. Evidence of competence will be collected in a variety of ways including written tasks, practical demonstration, portfolio or assignments. You may be deemed ‘Competent’ if performance in all required assessment activities is satisfactory or ‘Not Yet Competent’ if you are still developing skills and/or your performance is at an unsatisfactory level. There is no pass or fail. This means that a course mark is not allocated. For this reason, the assessment schedule for HSC VET courses is in a different format to other Board Developed Courses. Formal assessment will be scheduled only when you have developed the necessary skills, and underpinning knowledge to demonstrate competency. Your trainer will keep a record of units of competency achieved. You may request to see this record at any time to determine your progress. Alternatively, you will be supplied with a competency log for maintaining a record of units achieved. You are entitled to seek advice about options for further training and assessment for competencies ‘not yet achieved’. You will also receive a report from the school each semester indicating competencies achieved to date.

Page 4: HIGHER SCHOOL CERTIFICATE ASSESSMENT SCHEDULE · a Statement of Attainment (SOA) towards the AQF qualification. A transcript will be issued by the NSW Education Standards Authority

The achievement of units of competency, will lead to a Certificate at AQF level I, II or III or a Statement of Attainment (SOA) towards the AQF qualification. A transcript will be issued by the NSW Education Standards Authority (NESA) on behalf of Public Schools NSW Wagga Wagga, Registered Training Organisation (RTO) 90333 for successful completion. Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) is available by submitting evidence of skills and knowledge relevant to the unit/s of competency for assessment by your trainer. Credit Transfer will be given for units of competency previously achieved with another RTO. Work placement is a mandatory HSC component in some courses and must be completed during the course. (Refer to the specific course assessment summary for more detailed information). Note that:

- you will not be permitted to participate in a work placement if you are not deemed ‘work ready’ by your trainer.

- an ‘N’ determination will be issued if work placement is not satisfactorily completed. This means that the course will not count towards your HSC pattern of study. However, you will still receive a Statement of Attainment which indicates the units of competency achieved towards the qualification.

- the scheduled date for work placement is shown in the course assessment summary. HSC Examination is only available in some VET courses. (Refer to the specific course assessment summary for more detailed information).

- Optional for students completing the 240 hour course and is intended for Australian Tertiary Admissions Rank (ATAR) purposes only. (Refer to the specific course assessment summary for more detailed information).

- Independent of the competency based assessment requirements for the Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF) VET qualification. The satisfactory completion of the course will still appear on your HSC if the optional exam is not undertaken.

If you intend to use your VET course towards the calculation of the ATAR, the school must submit an estimated mark of your likely performance in the HSC. This will only be used in the case of an illness/misadventure appeal. Students whose HSC pattern of study makes them eligible to receive an ATAR must sit the Trial HSC. 5. SATISFACTORY COMPLETION OF A HIGHER SCHOOL CERTIFICATE COURSE

(i) Albion Park High School Requirements

Students are expected to make a reasonable attempt at all tasks in each of the courses they are studying.

Students are expected to have a satisfactory attendance record to enable them to achieve the course outcomes for each course studied. Parents/guardians will be notified in writing if a student’s progress is being affected by absences.

Students and their parents/guardians will be notified in writing if the possibility exists that a student might not satisfactorily complete a Higher School Certificate Course. Any appeal relating to a Higher School Certificate Course NOT SATISFACTORILY COMPLETED must be made to the Principal during September, 2020. Appropriate forms will be made available for this purpose.

Page 5: HIGHER SCHOOL CERTIFICATE ASSESSMENT SCHEDULE · a Statement of Attainment (SOA) towards the AQF qualification. A transcript will be issued by the NSW Education Standards Authority

(ii) NSW Education Standards Authority (NESA) Requirements A student will be considered to have satisfactorily completed a course, if in the Principal’s view, there is sufficient evidence that the student has: (a) followed the course developed or endorsed by the Board; and (b) applied themselves with diligence and sustained effort to the set tasks and experiences provided in the course by the school; (c) achieved some or all of the course outcomes. 6. TYPES OF ASSESSMENT TASKS (i) Formal Assessment Tasks Students may be given Formal Assessment Tasks as per the individual course schedule. Trial HSC Examination periods may also be included as part of the assessment. The purpose of Formal Assessment Tasks is to determine a Final Assessment Mark for the Higher School Certificate Course being studied and assist in providing evidence that a student has satisfactorily completed a Higher School Certificate Course. Students will be provided with information for each course being studied which will outline the nature of the Formal Assessment Tasks and the Assessment Period when they will occur. Student responsibilities related to Formal Assessment Tasks are found elsewhere in this booklet. (ii) Class Tasks In addition to the Formal Assessment Tasks students will be required to complete class tasks such as class assignments, practical work and reports, written work, guided revision, pre-reading tasks and associated homework tasks. The satisfactory completion of class tasks will assist in providing evidence that a student has satisfactorily completed a Higher School Certificate Course. 7. ATTENDANCE AND SATISFACTORY COMPLETION OF A COURSE

Principals may determine that, as the result of absence, the course completion criteria might not be met. Students whose attendance is called into question will be required to prove to the Principal’s satisfaction, following a review of their performance, that they are meeting the course completion criteria.

Ongoing late arrival without an adequate excuse will be considered as a partial absence and may lead to an unsatisfactory record of attendance. 8. NON-COMPLETION OF COURSE REQUIREMENTS - 'N' DETERMINATION Students judged not to have satisfactorily met course requirements will have neither Assessment nor Examination marks reported on the Board of Studies web site. When a candidate has not satisfied requirements for a course the Principal will: • indicate to the Board of Studies that a student has not satisfactorily completed a

course by inserting an 'N' in the space next to the school assessment mark on the Assessment Collection Schedule;

Page 6: HIGHER SCHOOL CERTIFICATE ASSESSMENT SCHEDULE · a Statement of Attainment (SOA) towards the AQF qualification. A transcript will be issued by the NSW Education Standards Authority

• advise the student of the determination, its consequences, and the student's right to a school review and subsequent appeal to the Board of Studies.

If a student is at risk of not meeting the assessment requirements in a course, a warning must be given. 9. STUDENT RESPONSIBILITIES

(i) Assessment Schedule

Students must: * make sure that they have a copy of the Assessment Schedule for Formal Assessment Tasks for each course studied. * present work according to the schedule of dates for assessment tasks; * be aware of the penalties for non or late submission of assessment tasks; * be aware of the procedure to be followed, if absent when a task is to be submitted, or completed in class; * satisfactorily explain all full and partial absences. (ii) Presenting Work Students must: * present their own work. * submit work in an appropriate format as instructed in the task notification. * not interfere with the efforts of others.

* maintain a back-up copy of work completed electronically; a computer crash, hardware failure or software malfunction will not be accepted as a reason for not completing or submitting a task.

* take responsibility for ensuring that tasks submitted via email have been received by their teacher.

10. TEACHER RESPONSIBILITIES

Class teachers must:

* ensure that students have a copy of the Assessment Schedule for their course; * follow the Assessment Schedule for their subject;

* give students AT LEAST TWO WEEKS notice of the date of an assessment task ensuring that absent students receive the information the next time the student attends the class; the notice should include outcomes to be tested by the task, administrative information concerning the task, an outline of the nature of task, and criteria by which the task will be assessed;

* where an assessment task needs to be rescheduled, negotiate with students concerning a suitable date.

11. NON-COMPLETION OF ASSESSMENT TASKS

In order to satisfactorily complete a course, students will have attempted all assessment tasks. In cases where a candidate fails to complete an assessment task, a zero must be recorded for that task. When a student fails to complete assessment tasks which contribute in excess of 50%

Page 7: HIGHER SCHOOL CERTIFICATE ASSESSMENT SCHEDULE · a Statement of Attainment (SOA) towards the AQF qualification. A transcript will be issued by the NSW Education Standards Authority

of available marks then the student will AUTOMATICALLY be deemed to - HAVE NOT SATISFACTORILY COMPLETED that course. (i) Absence From an Assessment Task

When the Absence will be known in advance: If a student knows that they will be unavoidably absent when an in class assessment task is scheduled, they must submit an illness/misadventure application before the absence. If accepted they must negotiate with the class teacher concerning rescheduling of the task. Note: Exams may not be rescheduled, an estimate may be provided. Documentary evidence must be supplied to support a valid reason for absence.

This requirement also applies if the student will be absent while representing the school on sporting, cultural, or educational representative duties.

When the Absence was not known in advance:

If absent from school when an assessment task was completed, students must complete an illness/misadventure form and provide documentary evidence (eg a doctor’s certificate or other valid explanation) to support their reason for absence on the next day the student attends school. If the absence is longer than three days, documentary evidence must be sent to the school by the third day after the task.

If the illness/misadventure is accepted, then the student must negotiate with the class teacher and Head Teacher concerning whether the task or substitute task may be carried out or an estimate be provided.

For Exams, an illness and Misadventure appeal must be completed for each affected exam. Forms are available from Head Teachers, Deputy Principal or the office. (ii) Late Submission of Tasks/Misadventure/Illness

When a student has been ill or has been adversely affected during a particular task, it may be possible to apply for an extension of time or to complete a substitute task. This application with supporting documentation where appropriate, should be made to the relevant course teacher and approved by the Head Teacher. If the Principal considers that a valid reason exists for non-completion of a task then an estimate based on other evidence may be made.

If a student submits a task after the due date for submission then a ZERO assessment will be given for that task unless an extension of time has been granted in writing.

However, submission of the task is essential for satisfactory completion of the course.

12. MALPRACTICE

Malpractice occurs when a student has been found to have copied another student’s work whether in an examination or in set class or prepared assessment tasks. Malpractice also occurs when a student allows another student to copy their work. Cases of malpractice will be referred to the Principal. Any case of proven dishonesty or malpractice by a student in an assessment task will result in a zero mark being awarded for

Page 8: HIGHER SCHOOL CERTIFICATE ASSESSMENT SCHEDULE · a Statement of Attainment (SOA) towards the AQF qualification. A transcript will be issued by the NSW Education Standards Authority

the task. Parents will be informed by letter by the Principal in such cases.

13. PLAGIARISM Plagiarism occurs when a student has been found to have submitted work which is a direct copy of an electronic document or a hard copy document without any acknowledgement. Cases of plagiarism will be referred to the Principal. Any case of proven plagiarism by a student in an assessment task may result in a zero mark being awarded for the task. Parents will be informed by letter by the Principal in such cases. 14. MISADVENTURE

Occasionally there may be circumstances where a scheduled assessment task needs to be cancelled or the results of a task discarded where there has been reasonable concern that the validity or security of the task has been compromised. In any such circumstance the course teacher(s), following approval from the appropriate Head Teacher, may set an alternative, but similar task. Due regard will be given to students’ assessment schedules.

15. RIGHTS OF APPEAL

Appeals in relation to assessment generally may only be made in the circumstances outlined below. There is a standard procedure for making an appeal in each circumstance and information regarding appeals must be made available to students or the parent/guardian on request.

A student may appeal against a mark and ranking awarded for an assessment task ONLY at the time that information is supplied to the student by the course teacher. While the course teacher may deal with an informal appeal students are advised to make appeals in writing.

A student or their parent/guardian (if the student is under 18 years of age) may appeal against an ‘N’ determination. Information regarding the appeal process and the time limit for the submission of the appeal will be supplied to the student or the parent/guardian at the time they are advised of the ‘N determination. 16. ASSESSMENT OF DISTANCE EDUCATION SUBJECTS AND SUBJECTS DELIVERED BY TAFE OR OTHER ACCREDITED OUTSIDE PROVIDERS. The small number of Albion Park High School students who either study a subject through the Distance Education School, the Open High School, TAFE or some other accredited provider will be assessed by the relevant school or provider. Each of these schools or providers will provide assessment information to their students.

Assessment Advice for HSC VET Courses Assessment in VET courses is competency based. This means that you need to demonstrate that you have gained, and can apply the specific knowledge and skills for the unit of competency to be deemed competent in that unit. Evidence of competence will be collected in a variety of ways including written tasks, practical demonstration, portfolio or assignments.

You may be deemed ‘Competent’ if performance in all required assessment activities is satisfactory or Not Yet Competent if you are still developing skills and/or your performance is at an unsatisfactory level. There is no pass or fail. This means that a course mark is not allocated. For this reason, the assessment schedule for HSC VET courses is in a different format to other Board Developed Courses. Formal assessment will be scheduled only when you have developed the necessary skills, and underpinning knowledge to demonstrate competency.

Your trainer will keep a record of units of competency achieved. You may request to see this record at any time to determine your progress. Alternately you will be supplied with a competency log for maintaining a record of units achieved. You are entitled to seek advice about options for further training and assessment for competencies ‘not yet achieved’. You will also receive a report from the school each semester indicating competencies achieved to date.

The achievement of units of competency, will lead to a Certificate at AQF level I, II or III or a Statement of Attainment (SOA) towards the AQF qualification. A transcript will be issued by the NSW Education Standards Authority (NESA) on behalf of Public Schools NSW Wagga Wagga, Registered Training Organisation (RTO) 90333 for successful completion.

Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) is available by submitting evidence of skills and knowledge relevant to the unit/s of competency for assessment by your trainer.

Credit Transfer will be given for units of competency previously achieved with another RTO.

Work placement is a mandatory HSC component in some courses and must be completed during the course. (Refer to the specific course assessment summary for more detailed information).

Note:

• You will not be permitted to participate in a work placement if you are not deemed ‘work ready’ by your trainer.

• An ‘N’ determination will be issued if work placement is not satisfactorily completed. This means that the course will not count towards your HSC pattern of study. However, you will still receive a Statement of Attainment which indicates the units of competency achieved towards the qualification.

• The scheduled date for work placement is shown in the course assessment summary.

HSC Examination is only available in some VET courses. (Refer to the specific course assessment summary for more detailed information).

Optional for students completing the 240 hour course and is intended for Australian Tertiary Admissions Rank (ATAR) purposes only. (Refer to the specific course assessment summary for more detailed information).

Independent of the competency based assessment requirements for the Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF) VET qualification. The satisfactory completion of the course will still appear on your HSC if the optional exam is not undertaken.

If you intend to use your VET course towards the calculation of the ATAR, the school must submit an estimated mark of your likely performance in the HSC. This will only be used in the case of an illness/misadventure appeal. Students whose HSC pattern of study makes them eligible to receive an ATAR must sit the trial exam.
