HSC ASSESSMENT TASK SCHEDULE
2019
-
GENERAL INFORMATION
WHAT IS AN ASSESSMENT MARK? Students will be awarded an assessment mark for each course they undertake (with the exception of VET Courses). This mark is awarded by the school as a measure of the student’s performance in a series of tasks during the course.
WHAT WILL BE ASSESSED AND WHEN? The timing and type of assessment tasks for each course are given in this booklet.
WHAT NOTICE WILL BE GIVEN? This assessment booklet gives you ample notice of tasks. You will also receive written notification of an assessment at least 2 weeks before the assessment is due.
WILL A STUDENT KNOW HOW S/HE IS ACHIEVING IN ASSESSMENT TASKS? Each assessment task will be returned to the student with a mark.
WHAT HAPPENS IF I MISS AN ASSESSMENT TASK? Assessment tasks must be submitted on the due date. A zero mark will be awarded for work submitted late. If you know that you will be absent on the day of an assessment task, you should ensure that the task is either submitted early or you organise for a friend or family member to submit it on the due date. If the absence is unexpected due to illness, a doctor’s certificate will be required. Other absences due to exceptional circumstances may be deemed acceptable by the supervising Deputy Principal or Faculty Head Teacher. Where an absence is considered justified, your teacher, in consultation with the Head Teacher, may decide
a) to let you do the task at the first opportunity when you return or b) to give you an alternative task
* Students who are absent due to participation in school representational activities must follow the above procedures or risk a zero mark.
USE OF COMPUTER TECHNOLOGY
If a student chooses or is required to prepare and produce work with the use of computer technology, it is their responsibility to ensure backups and hard copies are made well in advance of the due date of an assessment task. Program and software compatibility are also potential problems and should be considered before the due date of the assessment task. Computer and associated technology malfunctions, even theft, without evidence of “work in progress” are not reasons for the late submission of an assessment task.
REVIEW OF ASSESSMENT (APPEALS) A student may appeal an assessment mark. The student must, within 5 school days, submit their concerns in writing to the Head Teacher of the subject concerned and seek a resolution to their request. Grounds for appeal are:
Exceptional circumstances outside the control of the student.
Inconsistency in the application of the school’s assessment policy and procedures.
If the student is not satisfied with this resolution, they may make an appeal to the supervising Deputy Principal. The student must submit an “Appeal Form” to their supervising Deputy Principal outlining their reasons for appeal, within one week of being notified of the Head Teacher’s decision. Students should only use the “Request for Consideration” available from their Year Advisor. The Senior Executive will meet within two weeks of receiving the written appeal, and the student may be invited to interview. The student will be supported by their Year Advisor. The student will receive written notification of the decision of the panel.
HSC PRACTICAL SUBMISSIONS Schedules of dates for submission of the practical component of HSC courses with practical components are available to students several months prior to the set date. The completion date refers to the date on which students must stop work on their works/projects and no work must be undertaken after these dates. The student’s works/projects are required at school the day after the completion date for certification.
-
WHAT HAPPENS IF TASKS ARE NOT ATTEMPTED? If the school determines that you have made a non-attempt at assessment tasks worth more than 50% of the total assessment tasks for that course, then it may be ruled that you are not eligible to proceed in that course. You will receive ‘Official Warning – Non-Completion’ letters for incomplete tasks and if this minimum requirement is not met you may be N-Determined.
MALPRACTICE
NESA now keeps a malpractice register and the school must report incidents that will be recorded and kept by NESA.
What happens if students are caught cheating in tasks?
The school will view this very seriously. After an investigation, the supervising Deputy Principal will rule on the penalty to be imposed.
What happens if i have a mobile phone in the exam?
BOSTES has reviewed their mobile phone policy. Mobile phones, smart watches and other electronic devices are not permitted in the examination room. They can be used to gain an advantage (cheat) or disrupt the concentration of other students in an exam or an assessment task. For this reason during school based assessment tasks and exams the above devices are not permitted. If you are caught with any of these devices you may receive a zero result (and an ‘Official Warning – Non-Completion’) and will be placed on the NESA malpractice register.
What is plagiarism? Plagiarism is the unacknowledged or unauthorised use of other people’s work or writing. Students who submit such writing or work as their own work will be deemed to have cheated and after an investigation, a penalty will be imposed by the Senior Executive and a zero mark will be allocated for that task. Plagiarism can include copying from the internet, written publications or other students’ work. The Board of Studies’ ‘All My Own Work’ covers all issues relating to plagiarism.
WHAT WILL BE REPORTED TO ME?
You will receive two reports during the year after examination periods. These reports will include a mark and rank achieved in the examination. You may also receive a cumulative assessment rank and/or information regarding satisfactory completion of the course. The level of achievement in subject outcomes will also be reported.
ARE STUDENTS TOLD THEIR SCHOOL AWARDED ASSESSMENT MARK?
No. After the final HSC examination, you can obtain your rank for assessment in each course via Students Online.
VET ASSESSMENT Students undertaking a VET course must meet the requirements of the NSW Education Standards Authority for the Award of the Higher School Certificate along with TAFE requirement.
NESA HAS MANDATED WORKPLACEMENT AS A REQUIREMENT OF THE HSC. WORK PLACEMENT HOURS ARE MANDATORY. All students must complete 35 hours work placement in the HSC course, this is in addition to the 35 hours in the Preliminary Course. Students must submit to their VET teacher their completed and signed work placement logbook as evidence that they have met this requirement. Teachers will maintain appropriate documentation and notify parents in writing when students are not meeting course requirements. Notification to parents will be timely and provide the opportunity for the issues of concern to be re-addressed as appropriate.
The HSC Examination is independent of competency based assessment. It is optional for students of a 240-hour VET course to sit the HSC exam as it is intended for ATAR purposes only.
All students must complete ‘two prior exams’ before sitting a HSC VET exam. The trial exam will be one of the two prior exams required to formulate the estimate for students in the event of misadventure - this will enable the school to carefully monitor and assist students in this situation.
-
The Senior Review
The Senior Review monitors the progress of all senior students and reinforces all NESA rules. Students along with their parents will be required to attend a meeting with the senior review committee if they:
Receive more than one ‘Official Warning – Non-Completion’ letter in any subject or a range ‘Official Warning – Non-Completion’ letters across subjects.
Have a record of behaviour causing concern.
Are identified for non-satisfactory participation in learning.
Students and their parents will be provided with an explanation of the school’s concerns and a support program along with a timeline for implementation will be negotiated.

Rationale:
SENIOR ASSESSMENT POLICY
Picton High School ensures that the Year 10 Qualification, Preliminary Course Qualification and Higher School Certificate assessments meet the NSW Education Standards Authority (NESA) requirements.
Aims:
Every student will be made fully aware of NESA, School and KLA requirements for the Year 10 Qualification, Preliminary Course Qualification and Higher School Certificate Assessment.
Procedures:
Every student is expected to submit all assessment tasks by the due date. An assessment task not submitted on time will be given a zero mark along with an ‘Official Warning – Non-Completion’ letter.
The final time for submission of an externally completed assessment task (e.g. assignment completed at home) will be 3.20pm on the day the assessment task is due. All internal assessment tasks (e.g. within class tests) must be completed on the designated day.
Acceptable reasons for the late submission or absence from an assessment task include illness, accident or
misadventure. If a student cannot attend an examination or submit an assessment on time, due to illness or
misadventure, that student needs to obtain appropriate documentation such as a medical certificate, a subpoena
from a court or a death certificate. This documentation must be submitted to the Faculty Head Teacher for all
assessment tasks and/or the Head Teacher Secondary Studies for any missed examinations.
The Head Teacher will determine if the reason is acceptable and will advise the student of the appropriate opportunities to re-sit or resubmit the assessment. A technological issue is not an acceptable reason for late submission.
Please Note: Family holidays and other non-emergencies are not justifiable reasons for submitting an
assessment task after the due date; or for being absent from an examination; and will result in a zero mark being
recorded along with an ‘Official Warning – Non-Completion’ letter.
When a student fails to submit an assessment task by the due date, the student and their parents will be advised in writing. An official N warning notification letter will be sent home informing the student and parents of the missing task and the impact of non-completion of this task on the course completion.
Even though a student fails to submit an assessment task by the due date, that task must still be submitted. Failure to complete a task may be used as evidence that a student has not applied themselves with diligence and sustained effort and may have ramifications for course eligibility.
Year 10 students- need to successfully satisfy all assessment requirements for all courses. Students who are presented with 2 or more official N warning notification letters in any one subject, will be deemed as ‘causing concern’ and appropriate interventions with the senior review panel may be applied.
Year 11 students- need to successfully satisfy all of the assessment requirements for all preliminary courses (a total of 12 units of study) to be eligible to move on to the HSC course work (even if you intend to drop that subject in the HSC you must first successfully complete it). Students who are presented with 2 or more ‘Official Warning – Non-Completion’ letters in any one subject, will be deemed as ‘causing concern’ and appropriate interventions with the senior review panel may be applied.
Year 12 students- that fail to complete tasks whose weightings total more than 50% of the total assessment mark in a particular subject, without a valid reason, could be issued with an ‘N’ determination in that subject in the HSC. This could deem a student ineligible to receive a HSC.
When a student fails to complete an assessment task due to a valid reason then the student could be given a substitute task. If this is not possible then an estimate mark may be given.
Work submitted must be only that of the student. If a child plagiarises part or all of a task then they will be given a zero mark, an ‘Official Warning – Non-Completion’ letter will be issued and the task will need to be re- submitted.
If a student is concerned with the result following the marking of a task, then they have a right of appeal. An appeal must be lodged as soon as possible after the return of the task using the appropriate appeal form and submitted to the Head Teacher of the appropriate subject for review.
Evaluation This policy will be reviewed as part of the school’s three-year review cycle.

Rationale:
SENIOR EXAMINATION POLICY (for students in Years 10, 11 and 12)
Examinations are an important part of the teaching and learning process. It is appropriate that processes are implemented in order to meet the standards set by the NSW Education Standards Authority (NESA) and the Department of Education to establish acceptable codes of conduct for these examinations.
Aims:
• To ensure that all examinations meet the requirements of NESA. • To provide examinations that are fair and meaningful for all students. • To ensure the examination environment is conducive to high student achievement.
Procedures:
• All students must wear full school uniform when sitting for an examination. • Students should not talk once they enter the examination room. • All mobile phones and electronic devices must be switched off and left in bags in the designated area.
• According to NESA guidelines, students must remove wristwatches at the start of an examination and leave the watch on their desk in full view of the examination supervisors.
• Upon entering the examination room, all equipment required for the examination must be removed from bags before they are placed in the designated bag storage area. Under no circumstances will students be able to keep their bags with them or access them during the exam.
• No equipment may be borrowed from or shared between students during an exam, and any additional equipment required must be obtained from an exam supervisor.
• Students must complete examinations in black or blue pen only. Pencil cases must remain in student bags and no white out is allowed to be brought into the exam room.
• Students are permitted to bring a bottle containing water into the exam room, however the bottle must be completely clear – no labels or non-transparent containers.
• Students who talk or disrupt others during an examination will have their names and the nature of the incident recorded by the examination supervisor and may potentially receive a mark of zero for the examination.
• Any student who creates a major disturbance during an exam will be removed from the exam room and sent to a Deputy for disciplinary action. Then they will receive a mark of zero for that particular examination.
• If a student needs to use the toilet they must raise their hand and obtain permission from the examination supervisors before leaving their seat. This is permitted only after the first 30 minutes and before the last 30 minutes of the examination.
• Students in Years 11 & 12 are only permitted to leave the examination room after the first 30 minutes and before the last 30 minutes of the examination.
• If a student cannot attend an examination due to illness or misadventure, that student needs to obtain appropriate documentation such as a medical certificate, a subpoena from a court or a death certificate. This documentation must be submitted to the Head Teacher Secondary Studies who coordinates the exams so that a re-scheduled examination can be arranged.
• Please Note: Family holidays and other non-emergencies are not justifiable reasons for being absent from an examination and will result in a zero mark being recorded along with an ‘Official Warning – Non-Completion’ letter.
• There should be an interruption free period prior to every structured senior exam session. This interruption free period will be placed on the school timetable for the week prior to both the half yearly exams and the yearly exams (or Trial HSC exams). No assessment tasks should be handed out or be expected to be completed during this interruption free time. No student should be expected to attend excursions, out of class events, complete work placement or work experience during this interruption free period.
Evaluation This policy will be reviewed as part of the school’s three-year review cycle.
Revised September 2018
-
Absent If you are absent on the day of an examination you need to notify the Head Teacher Secondary Studies or Student Central at school within 24 hours. A doctor’s certificate then needs to be provided to the Head Teacher Secondary Studies upon your immediate return to school.
Unable to sit an exam due to a clash If for whatever reason there is a clash with the examination timetable due to TAFE or another examination clash, you must notify the Head Teacher Secondary Studies in person, at least 48 hours prior to the scheduled examination.
Important examination tips to remember
Make sure you turn up to your scheduled exam at least 20 minutes prior to the commencement time.
All examinations are in the school hall unless you are notified otherwise. No phones or electronic devices are allowed on you or at your desk. They must be switched off and in your bag.
All bags are to be left at the back of the hall during the examinations.
Only water bottles with no labels are allowed at your desk and must be clear.
No examination book or writing book is allowed to leave the room.

A Glossary of Key Words
This glossary contains key words that appear frequently in Board of Studies syllabuses, performance descriptions and examinations.
The purpose behind the glossary is to help students prepare better for the HSC by showing them that certain key words are used similarly in examination questions across the different subjects they are studying.
In classrooms, teachers of different subjects could use the glossary to help students to better understand what the examination questions in their subject require. Students should recognise the consistent approach of teachers of different subjects and get cues about how to approach examination questions.
For example, students would be better placed to respond to 'explain' questions if, in the context of different subjects, they developed an understanding that 'explain' could require them to relate cause and effect; make the relationships between things evident; provide why and/or how.
It is also important that the key words should not be interpreted in an overly prescriptive way. Teachers must ensure that they do not use them in ways that conflict with their particular meaning within subjects. To do this would be counterproductive. A term like 'evaluate', for example, requires a different kind of response in Mathematics from that required in History and this needs to be respected.
When using key words to construct questions, tasks and marking schemes, it is helpful to ask what the use of the term in a particular question requires students to do.
Key words are best discussed with students in the context of questions and tasks they are working on, rather than in isolation.
It is important to note that examination questions for the HSC will continue to use self-explanatory terms such as 'how', or 'why' or 'to what extent'. While key words have a purpose, they will not set limits on legitimate subject-based questions in examination papers.
