Diploma Update:

Y12 End of school or mock exam
We would like to thank you for your hard work in writing the exam and invigilating the exam. Year 12 students will be back in their normal lesson starting on 13 February 2017. If you have finished marking the exam, kindly prepare the analysis of the result. Congratulation for Maths teachers that has completed their analysis result. The following are the evidences of the analysis, based on Pak Nicolas' previous email:

1. Y12 Mock Exam Curriculum Improvement Report – (HODs to Principals & CC)

·         A summary of Y12’s performance in each Paper and conclusions regarding what areas require more revision.

·         What can we learn?  Describe how your analysis of results will help optimize the curriculum for next academic year.

         Submission deadline 01 March.

2. Mock Exam Comments – Published via MBac in March (Term 3 reporting).

·         Be sure to give written feedback on the exam papers themselves or on a separate comment sheet.  Students need to know how they can improve as soon as possible. 

·         Thoughtfully differentiated comments.  What can each student do to improve?  Specific references to exam components.

·         If you keep a copy of the comments you make on the exam papers, or you summarise them, you can use them directly for the report comments and save time later.
