HSC Assessment in a Standards-Referenced Framework - A Guide to Best Practice

This booklet has been produced to assist schools and teachers in designing and implementing good policies and procedures for the Higher School Certificate Assessment Program. It will also assist in the evaluation of the effectiveness of current practices.

This booklet builds on earlier documents in this field, HSC Assessment - A Guide to Developing Procedures in Schools (1997), HSC Assessment Checklist (1998), and The New Higher School Certificate Assessment Support Document (1999), and is consistent with the requirements of the current syllabuses and the standards-referenced approach to assessing student achievement.
