What we learned for Senior classes • Zoom is terrific with seniors. • Can pretty much run a normal lesson. • There is one benefit : continuous work samples. New Challenges • Assessment. Exploring Google self-marking quizzes; online maths services. Three ideas • No digital pen? A graphic tablet • WACOM • XP-PEN • Synchronous model?

  • 'Asians Always Do Well': Getting Behind the Stereotypes of 'Ethnic
    ‘Asians Always Do Well’: Getting Behind the Semester 1 2018 Stereotypes of ‘Ethnic Success’ in NSW www.cpl.asn.au/journal Christina Ho makes the case for improved understanding of the complex relationships between ethnicity, class and school achievement… ‘James Ruse tops the HSC’. ‘NAPLAN: Non-English speaking background students come out tops’. These are some of the headlines demonstrating the so-called ‘ethnic advantage’ when it comes to schooling in NSW. Whether it’s NAPLAN results, HSC leader boards, or the composition of selective schools, children of migrants seem to enjoy extraordinary educational success. This paper takes a deeper look at the complex relationships between ethnicity, class and schooling in NSW, using data from the My School website. Students from language backgrounds other than English (LBOTE) comprise 30% of all students in NSW public schools. But this LBOTE category includes students who face enormous socio-educational disadvantage, as well as those highlighted in the media as schooling superstars. There is also evidence of self-segregation based on ethnicity and class. How can we use this information to better understand the diverse needs of NSW students? The ‘ethnic advantage’ Every year, images of high achieving Asian-Australian students from selective schools feature in media coverage of HSC results. For example, James Ruse Agricultural High School in north-western Sydneyhas topped the HSC leader board for 21 years in a row. Christina Ho - For Your Future 1 ‘Asians Always Do Well’: Getting Behind the Semester 1 2018 Stereotypes of ‘Ethnic Success’ in NSW www.cpl.asn.au/journal Discussion of annual NAPLAN results also typically notes the strong results of students from LBOTE, who are now out-performing non-LBOTE students in many areas of the test (e.g.

  • 2016 North Sydney Boys High School Annual Report
    North Sydney Boys High School Annual Report 2016 8132 Page 1 of 32 North Sydney Boys High School 8132 (2016) Printed on: 7 April, 2017 Introduction It is great to be back at North Sydney Boys High School (NSBHS) after three years working in an Indigenous school in Far North Queensland. Our students are showing a greater engagement in the array of programs offered in the classroom and beyond, and their organisational skills have developed well. This is due in no small part to the leadership and coaching of their teacher mentors. Falcon Pride is strong in the school and this year I have witnessed many instances of boys supporting each other, supporting the wider community and generally conducting themselves with honour. 1 Students – Population, Enrichment and Academic pursuits Student numbers – In 2016 Year 7 students came from a total of 77 suburbs all over the Sydney metropolitan area and from 57 primary schools. The schools contributing the largest number of students to our Year 7 intake were: Waitara, Hurstville and Chatswood with 10 students each, Summer Hill with 11 students and Artarmon with 19 students. The number of students from language backgrounds other than English (LBOTE) has remained quite stable over the past ten years. The current percentages of LBOTE students, by year, are 92% (Year 7), 94% (Year 8), 92% (Year 9), 92% (Year 10), 93% (Year 11) and 92% (Year 12). Overseas trips – The 64 students who went on the Europe Music tour in 2015 returned on Christmas Eve after a memorable two weeks. They performed in Prague, Hodonin (Czech Republic), Budapest and Vienna, in venues including cathedrals, schools and open–air markets.

The competition is for state and private schools in the Sydney metropolitan and surrounding areas and is conducted by the NSW Junior Chess League, a not-for-profit organisation. Matches are held after school on Fridays in second term (and if necessary early in third term) on a home-and-away basis. To minimise travel, teams are divided into regions and further into divisions. Teams which win their divisions proceed to knock-out regional finals and, if successful, to the overall competition finals. The finals take place in third term. The competition is played in three separate grades: JUNIOR Years 7 and 8 only Players must compete INTERMEDIATE Years 9 and 10 only in the grade appropriate SENIOR Years 11 and 12 only for their school year. A team consists of four players for each match, but there is no limit on the number of players who may play in different matches. However, players in the finals must have played in at least 50% of the preliminary rounds. Players must be students at the school they represent. Participating schools are required to nominate a coordinator (usually a teacher or member of ancillary staff, but may be a parent), and for home matches a supervising adult must be present throughout the match.
