Thoughts from the Chatsworth Primary Hallway

“The process of students reflecting on their learning, through effective questioning that promotes the articulation of student thinking, is integral to classroom assessment practices that enhance student learning.” Black, P & Wiliam, D (1998)

  • Thursday 28 May 2015 is Student Led Conference (SLC) day. A student-led conference is a meeting run by the student for his or her parents, entirely focused on the student’s recent learning. During the conference, the student presents work in different curriculum areas, discussing the process of learning and the progress made to date. SLSs give parents, students and teachers the opportunity to be a valued part of our reporting process.  During the SLC, parents are given the opportunity to understand, share and celebrate their child’s progress as well as areas of strength and areas of further growth. As a result of SLCs, students are empowered and develop a greater sense of ownership of their learning.

  • We look forward to seeing you on campus on Thursday.
