Hi Elizabeth</p>
<p class="x_xxmsonormal" style="margin: 0cm; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">
 </p>
<p class="x_xxmsonormal" style="margin: 0cm; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">
On the face of it, the document is permitting SAT’s to be conducted on site if not able to be conducted at home.  The most important documentation however will be what is prescribed by our VCAA curriculum manager.</p>
<p class="x_xxmsonormal" style="margin: 0cm; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">
 </p>
<p class="x_xxmsonormal" style="margin: 0cm; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">
While some students will be happy with the possibility to continue with some practical work, this will not be fair or equitable across the state.</p>
<p class="x_xxmsonormal" style="margin: 0cm; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">
 </p>
<p class="x_xxmsonormal" style="margin: 0cm; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">
By mandating this, schools will be put in the position of having to accommodate and provision for the support of additional students and staff, putting at further risk, the health and safety of those already onsite as well as those impacted by this.</p>
<p class="x_xxmsonormal" style="margin: 0cm; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">
 </p>
<p class="x_xxmsonormal" style="margin: 0cm; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">
I do not see the need to try and throw together a set of scores that will appease the marking criteria just so that ranking and the ATAR score is easier to calculate.  These scores will not be fair and will be determined by what is achievable and will potentially
 bias schools or students based on resources and access.</p>
<p class="x_xxmsonormal" style="margin: 0cm; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">
 </p>
<p class="x_xxmsonormal" style="margin: 0cm; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">
We already have assessments and SAC’s that will give a fair, equitable and achievable set of scores that will allow for both school and state ranking. Why add to the confusion.</p>
<p class="x_xxmsonormal" style="margin: 0cm; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">
 </p>
<p class="x_xxmsonormal" style="margin: 0cm; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">
I am concerned that the decision makers are not fully aware of the facts and must say that I am disappointed with the lack of communication that has been provided by the VCAA around this matter.   The delays and uncertainty have kept schools in limbo and second
 guessing expectations.</p>
<p class="x_xxmsonormal" style="margin: 0cm; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">
 </p>
<p class="x_xxmsonormal" style="margin: 0cm; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">
I would like to know what correspondence has been held between the VCAA and the education minister as well as what correspondence or enquiries have been held between the VCAA and it’s teaching staff.  I don’t recall ever being asked what, as a teacher, I felt
 might be achievable.</p>
<p class="x_xxmsonormal" style="margin: 0cm; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">
 </p>
<p class="x_xxmsonormal" style="margin: 0cm; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">
I really hope that our subject specific communication takes into consideration our concerns when it finally comes out.</p>
<p class="x_xxmsonormal" style="margin: 0cm; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">

 sewing machines/resource packs to students? This, of course, would have to be done in a way that is equitable to all student in the cohort. </span></p>
