Reports
Reports will be published on Tuesday 22nd June (when the students get back from their trip).
Report for students in Year 2 and above will include the results of the InCAS Assessment the students completed in Term 3. InCAS assessments are a diagnostic, computer-delivered, computer-adaptive assessment tool used by international schools around the world. We have been trailing these assessments this year and we are hoping to continue using them in the future.
We have decided to share the results of the InCAS assessment with parents as feedback we have received tells us that some parents would like more precise, numerical, standards-based assessments of their child’s progress. We hope that the InCAS assessment results will be helpful to parents in better understanding their child’s progress and how they may be able to help.
It is important to remember that the results of any assessment need to be viewed in context and with an understanding that a snapshot assessment will never give the whole picture.
At HFS we believe the best way to fully understand your child’s progress, including their performance on standardised assessments is by talking to your child’s teachers. We also know that a child’s education is about much more than what can be shown on a test.
As with all aspects of the school’s operation, we value your opinions and we look forward to hearing your feedback on this new way of reporting.
Trips
Please remember that Tuesday is trip day!
Ms McChellan will be sharing details about her class’s trip to Soepyeong Children’s Park.
For the Gyeongju World trip:
- Students will need to wear their school uniform shirt, blue or red
- We are allowed to bring food into the part so students can bring a packed lunch
- A sensible amount of spending money is allowed.
- We will not be taking any parent helpers on this trip. Thank you for all the kind offers of help but we have sufficient staff to cover the trip and we would like to stay well within COVID-19 restrictions on numbers
- Please remember hats and sunscreen
We know everyone will have a great day!
