e-asTTle Report - Year 9 and 10 students
The e-asTTle tool enables a measure of a student’s curriculum level in reading and mathematics. Testing occurs early in Term 1 for all Year 9 students, mid Term 1 for all Year 10 students and again early in Term 3 for all Year 9 and 10 students. Reports are made available soon after to share progress with whānau and families.
Engagement Report - All year levels
Engagement reports are emailed home every two weeks and show the progression of student engagement in each subject. Engagement is defined as a student’s willingness to participate in activities in a sustained and positive way. This may look different across different learning areas and year levels.
Engagement will be based on a scale of 1-5.
3 = Meeting Expectations and the majority of students will receive a 3.
The definition of “Engagement” is derived from the three Key Competencies: Managing Self, Relating to Others and Participating and contributing. Students who exceed expectations in one of these competencies will score a 4. If students exceed expectations in two or more competencies, they can score a 5. The idea is similar for those not meeting expectations.
1 – Rarely Meets Expectations
2 – Meets Some Expectations
3 – Meets Expectations
4 – Exceeds Some Expectations
5 – Exceeds Expectations
Grades and Comments Report - All year levels
All learning areas publish grades and comments for every assessment at each year level. These comments relate to the Key Competencies of Thinking, and Using language, symbols and text. The focus is on the skills, knowledge, attitudes, and values specific to a subject area. Each comment offers guidance that will enable students to improve their learning in that subject. While this data is live in our KAMAR Portal, a document is sent home at the start of Term 3 and the end of Term 4 summarising what is in KAMAR at that stage of the year.
