STUDENT PROMOTION THROUGH THE SCHOOL
PR-7-6
PROCEDURAL DOCUMENT
Effective Date: 15-Sep-08
Rationale
To ensure that students are promoted through the school in a fair and consistent manner.
Guidelines
- Students who turn 5 between
January and 31 June will be classified at Year 1. Students who turn 5
between 1 July and the end of the year will be classified as Year 0.
- There is a need to be flexible to
ensure provision of students needs. Retention/promotion discussions
should be generally restricted to students whose birthdays occur in
April and May.
- All students’ learning needs are to be catered for.
Conclusion
Decisions concerning placement,
retention or promotion of students should be made after consultation
between Principal, teachers, senior staff and other related services.
Parents will then be notified and invited to discuss the decision with
the senior staff and Principal before a final decision is made. All
students should have success at whatever level they are at. |
