Assessment

Assessment refers to the collection of information about student achievement.

The QCAR framework recognises the central role of teachers' every day classroom assessment in providing authentic and valid feedback for ongoing improvement in teaching and student learning.

It also recognises that statewide point-in-time assessment provides reliable and comparable information about student achievement across schools.

While each assessment approach provides different information, in combination fuller picture of student achievement is provided.
