Evidence of learning

All Stage 2 subjects have a school assessment component and an external assessment component.

The following assessment types enable students to demonstrate their learning in Stage 2 English as an Additional Language:

School assessment (70%)

• Assessment Type 1: Academic Literacy Study (30%)
• Assessment Type 2: Responses to Texts (40%)

External assessment (30%)

• Assessment Type 3: Examination (30%).

Students provide evidence of their learning through seven assessments, including the external assessment component. Students complete:

• two tasks for the academic literacy study (one oral and one written)
• four tasks for the responses to texts (at least one oral and two written)
• one examination.
