Progress Reports

“We all progress at different rates and start from different places. Assessing and reporting on your child’s progress – not just their achievement – takes into account their starting point. It helps teachers and kaiako provide your child with the right learning opportunities and support. It also helps you know what progress your child is making and how you can support their learning.”

This week your child will be bringing home a mid-year report. This report includes detailed information about the progress and achievement of your children, as well as next steps for learning. 

The Progress and Consistency Tool (PaCT) is a resource used by schools to support teachers to make consistent decisions about students’ achievement in reading, writing, and mathematics. 
​
Rotorua SDA School is a PaCT school and has used PaCT since 2016. Last year we introduced PaCT reports as part of the school reporting cycle. 
As part of our mid-year reports, we have included a PaCT report for Reading, Writing and Mathematics.  The diagram below will help you to read this report and gain an understanding of the curriculum level your child is working at in Reading, Writing and Mathematics.

All our Rotorua Central Kahui Ako Schools are using the PaCT Tool. This progress data follows each student as they transition to our Kahui Ako local high schools.
