A message to students and their parents

RoSA includes Stage 4 and Stage 5 work.

Year 7 to Year 11 students will have the opportunity to gain skills and knowledge which will form the

foundation for future learning and success. Students will be engaged in studies that will be assessed

within the school. Both students and their parents will benefit from this booklet which explains the

Record of Student Achievement (RoSA) requirements and the School’s Assessment Program, the

grading system and the role of performance descriptors in each subject studied at the school.

Students who leave school after completing Year 10 and before completing Year 12 will be given a

Record of School Achievement (RoSA) at the time of leaving school, marking the end of junior

secondary schooling. The credentials required will include:

an ongoing, cumulative record of student achievement for English, Mathematics,

Science, History, Geography, Arabic and PDHPE. Electives are also identified.

results of moderated school based assessments

If a student leaves school without completing and/or qualifying for a Record of Student

Achievement, BOSTES will issue the student with a Transcript of Student Participation. Malek Fahd

Islamic School will assist all students to realise their potential in order to gain a creditable RoSA. If

you have any questions or concerns at any stage please seek help as soon as possible. This is

available from your class teachers, the Head Teachers, Welfare Coordinators and the Deputy

Principal.

To qualify for the Record of School Achievement (RoSA), a student who attends Malek Fahd Islamic

School must have undertaken and completed courses of study that satisfy the Board’s curriculum

and assessment requirements for the Record of School Achievement, complied with attendance

regulations and completed Year 10.

1. External Tests

There are no external examinations for RoSA, however, an optional online literacy and numeracy

test will be available for students who wish to participate.

Record of School Achievement (RoSA) Assessment Policies and Procedures 2017 4

2. Grades

A variety of assessment methods can be used to determine your grade. This may include research essays, oral classroom presentations, research projects involving long term planning and investigation skills, examinations and practical work.

Students must apply themselves with diligence and sustained effort for all tasks as well as class work

in order to fulfill course requirements to the school’s satisfaction. Regular attendance,

demonstrated satisfactory achievement in class activities, behaviour and punctuality are included in

the indicators of diligence.

Students will have access to official notification of assessment tasks and are required to complete

these tasks, which will be used to determine the grades to be awarded. Assessment Schedules for

each course will be provided by the subject teacher. If there is a change, a minimum of two weeks’

notice will be given in writing to students prior to each assessment task. Each course schedule will

outline a description of the task, including its timing, type, outcomes to be assessed, marking criteria

and weighting. Check with your teacher if you are unclear about any task.

For the determination of the grades, only Year 10 and Year 11 assessments will be used. This does

not include attitude, effort or behavior. Students will be assessed individually, not on group

performance. The assessment task will cover the stated course outcomes. If you have any concerns

relating to the task, please consult your subject teacher and the subject Head of Department.

General performance descriptors

The general performance descriptors describe performance at each of five grade levels. A The student has an extensive knowledge and understanding of the content and can readily apply this knowledge. In addition, the student has achieved a very high level of competence in the processes and skills and can apply these skills to new situations. B The student has a thorough knowledge and understanding of the content and a high level of competence in the processes and skills. In addition, the student is able to apply this knowledge and these skills to most situations. C The student has a sound knowledge and understanding of the main areas of content and has achieved an adequate level of competence in the processes and skills.

1. External Providers

External providers may be accessed by the School to deliver courses of study that are part of

curriculum requirements as specified by the Education Act 1990. An external provider is any

organisation that the school has arranged to deliver a specified course of study to a student or

students enrolled in the school.

Students may study a maximum of two subjects outside Malek Fahd Islamic School. Further details

may be obtained from the External Provider Policy from the Head of Department IT.

2. Failure to Complete Assessment Tasks

All assessment tasks are due on a specified date and time. Failure to complete the task on that date

will result in a zero. For exceptional circumstances only, when the task cannot be completed or sat

on the specified date, students may apply to the relevant Head Teacher at least 5 days before the

date to discuss the possibility of alternate arrangements. In this case, a letter from the

parent/guardian would be required.

In the event of illness on the specified date, the school must be notified, in writing, of the reasons

for absence upon return to school. The student will be required to complete an alternative task (if

possible) at the next available opportunity. In exceptional circumstances, the Principal may

authorize the use of an estimate based on appropriate evidence.

If you fail to hand in an assessment task by the due date you will receive a mark of zero. A mark may

be awarded to you if you follow the procedures below.

Example scenario 1: If you are sick on the day an assessment task is due, try to arrange to get the task to your teacher on the due date by asking a friend or family member to hand it in. Ring the school to let them know you are doing this. Example scenario 2: Where you feel there is valid reason, such as serious illness or misadventure, for missing the task or being unable to hand it in on the due date, then you must:

a) Inform the school by contacting Office Staff on the day of the task by phone, explaining the reason for your absence and the relevant faculty and teacher.

b) Report to the relevant teacher or head teacher immediately upon return to school, with a medical certificate. You will need to discuss your case and find out what the outcome will be

Page 7: RECORD OF SCHOOL ACHIEVEMENT (RoSA) ASSESSMENT …€¦ · Record of School Achievement (RoSA) at the time of leaving school, marking the end of junior secondary schooling. The credentials

Record of School Achievement (RoSA) Assessment Policies and Procedures 2017 7

depending on the nature of the task. Please note that documentation submitted at a later date will not be accepted.

c) If the task was a take-home task, you must hand it in, completed, with your medical certificate immediately upon your return to school.

If the above procedures are followed, and the reason for your absence is accepted, depending on the nature of the task you have missed, you may be required to complete the original task (at the earliest time available), complete an alternative task (at the earliest time available) or you may be given an estimate. The parent/guardian will be notified by the Head of Department in the event of a student failing to

complete set assessment tasks. Parents/guardians will also be notified of the fact that failure to

complete tasks totaling more than 50% of the value of the total assessment schedule in that course

will result in an “N” Determination.

3. Medical certificates

a) The medical certificate should give some details of the illness. This certificate must include a

date and reason. It is your responsibility to bring this to the attention of the medical

practitioner.

b) Overseas trips, extended holidays, dental appointments, meeting relatives or going to the

airport to meet relatives etc. are not valid reasons for missing assessment tasks.

c) In situations where you are required to be absent from school for extended periods of time,

such as family reasons or severe illness, you must request leave from the Principal in

advance. If the requested leave is granted, you need to negotiate the completion of your

assessment tasks with the relevant Head Teachers for each course that you are studying.

d) Students who habitually present doctors’ certificates for assessment tasks will be deemed to

be non-serious students unless the school is aware of a prior medical condition.

e) Backdated medical certificates are not acceptable.

f) Medical certificates issued by a family member or friend are not acceptable.

4. Late Assessment Tasks

The same procedures for failure to complete assessment tasks will apply. Technology failure is not

an acceptable reason for a late assessment task. Students are expected to allow sufficient time for

printing etc. Students are encouraged to make copies of their work and keep these for the duration

of the course. When completing an assignment on the computer, students are also encouraged to

Page 8: RECORD OF SCHOOL ACHIEVEMENT (RoSA) ASSESSMENT …€¦ · Record of School Achievement (RoSA) at the time of leaving school, marking the end of junior secondary schooling. The credentials

Record of School Achievement (RoSA) Assessment Policies and Procedures 2017 8

print a copy of their draft as in the case of computer malfunction, the draft can be used by subject

teachers to determine student progress and their level of knowledge and understanding. This will be

determined by the subject teachers (in consultation with the Head of Department) at their

discretion.

If the assessment task is handed in late, a 10% penalty for each day late will apply. Weekends will

count as 2 days.

5. Malpractice/Plagiarism

Malpractice includes providing false documentation in support of an Appeal, misbehavior/disruption

in the Examination Hall, possession of mobile phone/electronic device, serious failure to follow

supervisor’s instructions or cheating during examinations.

A student who submits material that has been copied from another source, including material from

another student will be penalised. Plagiarism of any sort will result in either a reduction of marks, or

a serious case, will be awarded a zero.

6. Malpractice Register

A Malpractice Register will apply to HSC students. BOSTES will collect and maintain information on

courses where malpractice has occurred, types of offence and the nature of any penalties applied.

BOSTES will publish annually aggregated data in a similar way to the programs which identify

breaches of examination rules, applications for disability provisions and illness/misadventure

appeals.

7. “N” Determination

When students have failed to complete set assessment tasks, teachers will discuss this matter with

the students as well as the parent/guardian. Warning letters are issued to parents/guardians

informing them of the issue. These warning letters must be treated seriously. One letter means you

have time to catch up. Two letters means you are risking an unsatisfactory grade in this subject.

An “N”Determination is only determined as a last resort. At least two warning letters must have

been sent to the parent/guardian before an “N” determination can proceed. The “N” determination

can be nullified by the student by complying with the requests in the letter by the specified date.

BOSTES lists 3 criteria for the satisfactory completion of a course.

Page 9: RECORD OF SCHOOL ACHIEVEMENT (RoSA) ASSESSMENT …€¦ · Record of School Achievement (RoSA) at the time of leaving school, marking the end of junior secondary schooling. The credentials

Record of School Achievement (RoSA) Assessment Policies and Procedures 2017 9

1. A student must have followed the course developed or endorsed by BOSTES. Malek Fahd

Islamic School emphasizes that attendance must be adequate, with a minimum of 85%.

Completion of class work must be satisfactory, including class participation, practical work,

and fieldwork as well as written tasks.

2. A student must apply themselves with diligence and sustained effort to all set tasks. At

Malek Fahd Islamic School, this includes satisfactory results in assessment tasks, adequate

attention to practical work and effort being reflective of student ability.

3. A student must achieve some or all of the course outcomes. Students at Malek Fahd Islamic

School are expected to display an appropriate attitude toward teacher instruction regarding

work attempts and/or completion. There must be evidence of learning, knowledge and

understanding.

If a student receives an “N” Determination in one or more Mandatory Subjects (English,

Mathematics, Science, Australian History or Australian Geography) the NSW Record of School

Achievement is not awarded in that year. If a student receives an “N” Determination in an

Elective Subject, then the subject does not appear in the NSW Record of School Achievement

documentation. If you do not complete tasks worth more than 50% of the total assessment

mark, you will be regarded as ineligible for the award of Record of School Achievement.

Students who are heading towards an “N” Determination will be interviewed by the relevant

Head Teacher. If the student fails to improve in application and achievement then a warning

letter will be posted to the student’s parent/guardian. Two such letters followed by a parent

interview could be seen as sufficient basis to consider the Determination of an “N” if the pattern

of performance continues without improvement.

In cases where a principal’s determination concerning eligibility for the Record of School

Achievement is contested, full details will be referred to the Board of Studies for determination.

8. Unfair Advantage

Students are expected to be at school for roll-call, all timetabled lessons and activities. Your

absence from classes prior to a hand-in or in-class task will be treated in the same way as an

absence from the task or failure to submit the task. The same procedure should be followed.

Students are expected to attend school every day including the days leading up to assessment

tasks. If a student is absent on the day before an assessment task is due, a 10% penalty will apply

(unless official leave has been granted by the School). If the assessment task is on a Monday, the

student must be present on the Friday before.

Page 10: RECORD OF SCHOOL ACHIEVEMENT (RoSA) ASSESSMENT …€¦ · Record of School Achievement (RoSA) at the time of leaving school, marking the end of junior secondary schooling. The credentials

Record of School Achievement (RoSA) Assessment Policies and Procedures 2017 10

If a student, deliberately or accidentally, does something which gives them an unfair advantage,

they may be awarded a zero mark for that assessment task and an “N” Award warning. Some of

the examples which may be considered to be giving an unfair advantage include, but is not

limited to:

Staying away from school or sports lessons to complete assignments that need to be

completed in their own time

Handing in work after the designated time

Copying other people’s work or allowing your work to be copied by others

Not organising to do an alternate task at an alternate time if you know you will be away

9. Reviews and Appeals

It should be noted that the marks awarded for each task are only to be queried at the time the

tasks are returned. Should a circumstance other than absence, lateness or plagiarism occur, then

the Head of Department reserves the right to adjudicate.

In cases where a student feels they have a genuine reason for appealing an “N” Determination,

they should firstly consult the class teacher and then, if not satisfied, submit a written appeal to

the relevant Head Teacher within three school days of the determination. Further appeals can

be made to the Deputy Principal in cases where the student is unsatisfied with the Head

Teacher’s decision.

10. Disabilities Provisions (Refer to Disability Provisions Policy)

If the student has a diagnosed medical condition such as a mental health issue or diagnosed

learning difficulty, he/she may be eligible for Disabilities Provisions. This must be applied for and

approved by the Board of Studies for the Higher School Certificate examinations. They may also

apply for school based assessment tasks. Should your child be eligible, please contact the school

counsellor. More information can be accessed on the BOSTES website

www.boardofstudies.nsw.edu.au

11. Year 10 Last Day of Attendance

The student record of achievement will not be issued until the student completes his or her final

day at school. It will be issued by the BOSTES on application by the Principal. Year 10 students

are expected to remain at school full time until the last day of the school year, which will be

Week 9 Term 4.

12. Information and Advice
