Outcome-Based Report Card Implementation for 2015/16 Report Card Implementation Throughout GSSD

Purpose of the GSSD Report Card The report card’s purpose is to effectively communicate authentic and accurate feedback to stakeholders about student achievement and learning characteristics. Stakeholders include: students, parents, guardians, educators, board, school division, post-secondary institutions and employers.

What’s Your Best Guess? Last year, 19/28 GSSD schools submitted all the report cards they used. Take your best guess on the total number of report cards used in those 19 schools … 77

Why the Shift in Assessment? The recently renewed Saskatchewan Curriculum reflects a change in the primary focus of assessment in schools. Historically, assessment practices were designed to rank and sort students. Now assessment supports the learning of all students. We are committed to ensuring that each student achieves his/her personal best. Historically, student assessment focused largely on the acquisition of content knowledge. Now assessment focuses not only on what students need to know but also on what they can do with what they know. GSSD 5 Year PD Continuum
