Evidence of learning

Assessment at Stage 1 is school based.

The following assessment types enable students to demonstrate their learning in Stage 1 English as an Additional Language:

• Assessment Type 1: Responding to Texts
• Assessment Type 2: Interactive Study
• Assessment Type 3: Language Study.

For a 10‑credit subject, students should provide evidence of their learning through four assessments. Each assessment type should have a weighting of at least 20%.

For a 20‑credit subject, students should provide evidence of their learning through eight assessments. Each assessment type should have a weighting of at least 20%.

It is anticipated that from 2018 all assessments (written, oral, and multimodal) will be submitted electronically.
