This policy is provided to all secondary students at Rockingham Senior High School. The policy is based on School Curriculum and Standards Authority (SCSA) requirements.
All students are enrolled in a combination of WACE courses. Some students are also gaining credit for WACE by completing vocational education and training (VET) programs. The VET programs are delivered and assessed by a registered training organisation (RTO). Some endorsed programs are delivered by school staff and the evidence of achievement is validated by the school.
Rockingham Senior High School has high expectations of our Year 11 and 12 (Senior School) student body. The aim of the assessment policy is to encourage students to take responsibility for their learning and to achieve success. It is our aim for staff, students and parents to work together in order to allow students maximum opportunities to successfully complete their assessment program.
Assessment procedures must be valid, fair and allow discrimination among students across the full range of ability levels.
This policy covers the assessment of all WACE courses at Foundation, General or ATAR, as well as endorsed courses and Units of Competency.
Definitions: The policy refers to WACE courses, endorsed programs and Units of Competency (UoC) within Certificate I, II, III and IV courses. Any statement using the term course will refer to all of the above.
