External Moderation Processes

GHA 11:35 - 12

Purpose: assurance that marking is consistent and students are getting a fair deal; to maintain consent to assess we have to participate; opportunity.

Assessment Plan

We get to choose the standards to be moderated.

Reports posted on NZQA

Review of reports (what changes need to be applied?)

Plan for changes (consistently taught)

November: We get to select the standards to be externally moderated – 10% of the standards – level 3 standards are chosen first.

Choosing standards – choose standards that are new to the programme. Can send these away early for feedback. Make sure there are sufficient samples of student work. Random samples are chosen by the HoF. The teacher is not to remark the work. Keep the work accessible to the HoF or the PN. Digital work can be stored in Teacher Shared. 

Make sure there is a mark chosen before publishing.

Physical Evidence

Stored in a faculty work area as determined by HoF. Access to the assessment task.

Moderation Website – this needs to be kept up to date.
