One-stop-shop for Stage 5 and Preliminary course grades
The Board has developed an online guide that contains links to information on the awarding, moderating and monitoring of grades for Stage 5 and Preliminary courses.
The guide is of particular relevance for teachers when submitting grades to the Board of Studies for all students completing Stage 5 and Preliminary courses.
The information in the guide supports best practice and consistency across the state, and includes:
- Understanding standards
- Awarding grades
- Support for grading
- Checking grades
- Using student work samples
- How the Board monitors grades.
Teachers are also reminded that grades are to be submitted for every student for every Preliminary course (other than Life Skills and VET) by Friday, 25 October 2013.
The guide can be found at: http://www.boardofstudies.nsw.edu.au/rosa/grades/.
