Reporting
All students receive three formal reports during the year - late term one, end of semester one and end of semester two. The term one report is intended to give parents a summary of how their student is settling into the new year. All teachers report under the same categories. The end of semester reports are more detailed and include achievement in each subject studied. In addition to these written reports parents are formally invited to attend parent teacher interviews twice a year. Informal contact is encouraged and can occur at any time during the year. Some students also receive a written report at the end of term three. These are similar in nature to the term one report but differ in that either a teacher or a parent may request the report.
End of semester reports include general information common to each subject, a teacher comment and an overall result from A+ to E- (or VHA to VLA at exit times). All subjects at Emmaus College are graded and these grades are included at appropriate times during the year. Grades are arrived at through a set of common criteria and standards developed in accordance with QSA syllabuses.
