Principles of Fair Assessment
![Page 17: May 22, 2012. Today is a chance to... - look at the provincial report card template - understand the new process -inform a decision about implementation](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062417/55175731550346176e8b4648/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

Principles of Fair Assessment
![Page 18: May 22, 2012. Today is a chance to... - look at the provincial report card template - understand the new process -inform a decision about implementation](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062417/55175731550346176e8b4648/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
MEANINGFUL
The gradebook or documentation system used by the teacher summarizes evidence of academic learning relative to provincial curricular outcomes rather than solely by assessment methods and/or tasks.
Principles of Fair Assessment
![Page 19: May 22, 2012. Today is a chance to... - look at the provincial report card template - understand the new process -inform a decision about implementation](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062417/55175731550346176e8b4648/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
CONSISTENT:
Determining a final grade is based on curricular outcomes and involves a teacher’s professional judgment and consideration of all gathered evidence.
Principles of Fair Assessment
![Page 20: May 22, 2012. Today is a chance to... - look at the provincial report card template - understand the new process -inform a decision about implementation](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062417/55175731550346176e8b4648/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

Promotion and placement comments are no longer used. The wording in the section for principal’s comments would reflect reporting to a particular grade in the next year.
AEP indication is no longer included on the report card. An attachment of adaptations made in the classroom can be included to the report card.
