We do this by providing tasks that allow all students the chance to demonstrate this.  \n• INDIVIDUALS-we know that each student is different and brings different skills, knowledge and experiences into the classroom. We aim to personalise the assessment of each students learning and work with them to set challenging learning goals.  \n• FUTURE READY-we embed this in our assessment practices by focusing on the key skills and knowledge students need to be successful both within and beyond the Brentwood community.  \nThe fundamental purpose of assessment at Brentwood is to understand students’ current levels of understanding and skill as per the Victorian Curriculum. Assessment is undertaken by identifying where students are sitting in comparison to the curriculum achievement standards. Knowing where students are at allows teachers at Brentwood to plan accurately for the next stage of learning on the continuum and allows students to track and take ownership of their learning.  \nAt Brentwood, regular and ongoing reporting on student learning is provided through Compass Learning Tasks. In addition to this, formal reports are provided at the end of Semesters 1 and 2 and progress reports are provided at end of Terms 1 and 3, with parents invited to attend Learning Conferences towards the end of term 1 and 3 to discuss their child’s progress. Parents are always welcome to seek further feedback from teachers outside of these opportunities.  \nAt years 7-10, student learning is assessed through a range of formative and summative assessment tasks. (See the diagram below. ) These ongoing assessments are used by teachers to make judgements about learning growth based on the Victorian Curriculum Standards on which we must report. These standards are central to the design of all units of work, learning activities and rubrics. Students must demonstrate the key skills and knowledge required at each standard over the course of the year, by engaging in units of work the consist of a range of learning activities and tasks forming both formal and informal formative and summative assessment tasks. This provides students with multiple opportunities to demonstrate their growth in their understanding throughout a unit of work. The grading scale used for these indicates where the student’s achievements are relative to the standards for their expected year level.  \nDET Assessment Pyramid  \nPlease note students’ assessments for VCE, VET & VCAL are aligned with the Victorian Curriculum and Assessment Authority requirements.
