Organisation of classes
Year 10 science classes are organised into two streams.
A-stream classes are graded (10SA1 to 10SA4).
B-stream classes are mixed ability.
Student assessment
Students in year 10 are assessed by examinations held at the end of each term. These examinations assess work completed during the term. Each examination is divided into four sections that assess:
  • Knowledge and understanding
  • Practical skills and first-hand investigations
  • Problem-solving skills
  • Scientific communication
Reports
Student progress is reported twice per year:
  • Half-yearly report uses results from the Term 4 examination (2006) and Term 1 examination
  • Yearly report uses results from the Term 2 and Term 3 examinations
Promotions and demotions
Students will be moved classes at the end of the year based on their results from the four term examinations.
Year 10 Grades
School Certificate grades will be determined from students results on the year 10 term examinations.
