Parent Teacher Interviews - your feedback is wanted!
Thank you to all of our parents and carers that participated in our recent Parent Teacher Interviews. It was another milestone of a different kind for the first year at Ripley Valley SSC. Our teachers appreciated having the opportunity to have a conversation with parents about student progress and connect during this period of Learning@Home. We are seeking your feedback about how we can improve the Parent Teacher Interview experience for our families. Please click here to complete a Survey about your experience and offer suggestions for how we can improve future events. 
Semester 1 Report Cards
Due to the ongoing impact of COVID-19 and Learning@Home arrangements in the first half of Term 2, Semester 1 Report Cards will be based on a modified Academic Program.
The report will include a Level of Achievement rating (A-E) for all learning areas taught in both Term 1 and Term 2 programs. 
Teachers will use evidence of achievement from the three modes of learning:
  • Term 1 Face-to-Face Learning
  • Term 2 Learning@Home Program
  • expected Term 2 Face-to-Face Learning (Weeks 6-10)

Our Term 2 Assessment Program for all subject areas has been modified to ensure that all students have equitable opportunities to achieve whether they are learning remotely or at school. Our teachers are also currently planning for the expected return of Years 7 and 8 students in Week 6 and are implementing appropriate modifications for the remainder of Term 2. If you have any concerns about the Term 2 Learning and Assessment Program, please contact your child's teacher.

At Ripley Valley SSC, integrating technologies in the classroom is part of our regular classroom practices. You can expect that after the conclusion of the remote and flexible learning arrangements, students will still be able to access their learning through Daymap. This is a great way for any sick or absent students to be able to independently catch up on missed learning. Teachers will also continue to allocate homework tasks through their Daymap Lesson Schedules and these will continue to be available to parents through the Daymap Parent Connect Portal. If you have been unable to register for a Parent Portal account, please contact tech@ripleyvalleyssc.eq.edu.au for assistance.
