Assessments
Savio College uses various types of assessments in order to provide feedback to students and parents about the student’s educational progress.
At present, all students are assessed continuously throughout the year through a series of formative and summative assessments done at school and at home. All these on-going assessments are called Continuous Assessment.
Besides this there is also a formal examination assessment session at the end of the school year called the Annual Examination session.
Both assessments contribute to the final grade each student obtains at the end of the school year as follows:
- Continuous Assessment (35%)
- Annual Examination session (65%)
Educators are strongly encouraged to apply assessment for learning strategies such as the use of success criteria and the providing of meaningful feedback in their teaching and assessment practice.
Savio College SLT and educators periodically evaluate and update the college’s assessment policy so that it is as effective as possible in informing on student progress.
