Small group moderation 2024 – online registration and upload of course assessment outline

Contact
Robyn Whisson (08) 9273 6367 (partnership registration)

John Newman (08) 9273 6757 (moderation queries)

Schools planning to run a class with fewer than six examination candidates in an ATAR Year 12 course are reminded of the need to establish a small group moderation partnership for 2024. Note: Year 12 ATAR courses with one student enrolled are still required to form a small group moderation partnership.

All schools with one or more small group moderation partnerships must register their partnerships with the School Curriculum and Standards Authority (the Authority) by Thursday, 8 February 2024.

To ensure the required comparability of marks, a partnership should be made with another school early to ensure delivery of the course at the same time. Establishment of a partnership before teaching commences enables the teachers involved to agree to the sequence and timing of delivery and to plan a common assessment outline.

From 2024 onwards schools will be required, when they register their small group moderation partnerships, to also upload the common assessment outlines for the courses involved in these partnerships.

All schools in a partnership are required to:

• use an identical assessment outline (typically developed collaboratively)
• establish and use identical assessment tasks and marking keys
• conduct all assessment tasks under the same agreed conditions (or conditions that are as similar as possible)
• co-develop and document agreed marking strategies to ensure comparability of marking, which can include:
  • one teacher marking a task from all students in all partner schools (i.e. rotating the marking of tasks between teachers)
  • double-marking a task from all students or from selected students across the range of grades (i.e. both teachers independently mark the whole task or particular sections/questions, then discuss comparability, review marks and make adjustments where required)
  • co-marking a task (i.e., each teacher marks particular sections/questions for all students).

Full details of the small group moderation procedures are available in Section 3.6 of the 2023 WACE Manual, available on the Authority website at https://www.scsa.wa.edu.au/publications/wace-manual.

The October 2023 Circular will include further details regarding the process to upload common assessment outlines and the link to register the small group moderation partnerships, which will replace the form previously used for this process.

Seminars will be provided early in 2024 for those teachers who have not participated in a small group moderation partnership before, or for those who wish to refresh their understanding of the required procedures. Details about the seminars will be available under ‘Events’ on the Authority website at https://scsa.wa.edu.au/events in December 2023.

The importance of uploading the RSQUAL file for WACE certification

Contact
Kerry Tarrant (08) 9273 6770
Kerry.Tarrant@scsa.wa.edu.au

Schools are reminded of the importance of ensuring the VET Qualification Results (RSQUAL) file is uploaded to the Student Information Records System (SIRS) database at the end of each calendar year. The information in the RSQUAL file is used to allocate unit credit towards the Western Australian Certificate of Education (WACE) and to determine that a student has met the Certificate II or higher requirement.

Please note: The RSQUAL file must only be uploaded once the school has received written verification from the Registered Training Organisation (RTO) that the student has achieved the qualification.

It is also important for schools to ensure that the RSQUAL file processes successfully to SIRS and any error messages are resolved before due dates. If a student does not have the correct number of units of competency linked to a qualification in SIRS, the RSQUAL will not upload successfully.

Failure to upload this file may result in students not achieving their WACE and may therefore be considered not eligible for first round offers for entry into university and TAFE courses.

If there are errors in student achievement data after the deadlines that are a result of the school providing incorrect or incomplete data, the school will be charged a fee for updating the data.

Schools are also reminded that if the RSQUAL is not uploaded at the end of that year for Year 11 students who have completed a qualification this may also prevent students from achieving their WACE in the following year.

The RSQUAL file should be uploaded at the conclusion of the year that the student completes the full qualification (whether that be Year 10, 11 or 12).

Schools should check that the qualification has been recorded correctly by running the report
CSE007 – VET qualifications achieved in full. The pathway to this report is: Reports > Other Reports > Report type: Achievements > Report: CSE007.

More detailed information about the RSQUAL file is provided in Section 9.6.5 of the Data Procedures Manual 2023. This publication is available on the School Curriculum and Standards Authority website at https://www.scsa.wa.edu.au/publications/wace-manual.

Links are provided to database-specific software programs in Section 13 of the Data Procedures Manual 2023 using the above link.

Contact
Jenny Offer (08) 9273 6313
Jenny.Offer@scsa.wa.edu.au

Schools are reminded that students will be able to download digital copies of their folio of achievement in mid-January 2024.

To download digital copies of the documents and certificates, students will need to log in to the student portal at https://studentportal.scsa.wa.edu.au. To log in to the student portal, students will need their eight-digit Western Australian Student Number (WASN) and password.

Year 12 students who have satisfactorily completed any Western Australian Certificate of Education (WACE) course unit, Preliminary unit, VET unit of competency or endorsed program will have a folio of achievement. This folio of achievement will include one or more of the following:

• Western Australian Statement of Student Achievement (WASSA)
• WACE
• Australian Tertiary Admissions Rank (ATAR) course report
• selected award certificates.

In 2023, the WASSA will also list completed Department of Training and Workforce Development funded VET skill sets.

Details relating to this year’s folio of achievement can be found in The WACE 2023 – Your guide to the Western Australian Statement of Student Achievement, Western Australian Certificate of Education and ATAR Course Report. This information guide is available on the Authority website at https://senior-secondary.scsa.wa.edu.au/the-wace/wace-requirements. You may wish to bring this to the attention of your students.

From 2020, the School Curriculum and Standards Authority (the Authority) no longer provides paper copies of the documents and certificates in the folio of achievement.

WACE Authentication
The Authority has made available a facility whereby education institutions can verify if a student has achieved the WACE. The WACE Authentication link is available on the front page of the Authority website at https://waceauthentication.scsa.wa.edu.au.

Western Australia Student Number requests for 2024

Contact
Data Services (08) 9273 6344
numbers@scsa.wa.edu.au
dataservices@scsa.wa.edu.au

All current students in Western Australia should have been allocated a Western Australian Student Number (WASN), and be registered with the School Curriculum and Standards Authority (the Authority). This number remains with the student throughout their school life. Schools need to recognise the importance of the WASN to avoid duplication of records and maintain continuity of student data.

From 16 October 2023, schools will only be able to request WASNs through the Student Information Record System (SIRS) for Kindergarten students commencing in 2024.

If a student other than Kindergarten arrives at your school from another WA school, please check to see if they have a WASN first using the ‘Search for WASN’ process – explained in ‘How to Search for WA Student Numbers in SIRS’ in this circular.  For new students commencing in 2024 that do not have a WASN, Schools should request a new number beginning in January 2024.

Please note we do not issue numbers for Pre-Kindergarten students.

If you cannot locate a number, then contact numbers@scsa.wa.edu.au and give details of the student’s legal surname, legal first name, date of birth and academic year. It is also useful to include your school code in any correspondence. If schools request a WASN for a student who already has a number, the correct WASN number will be sent back to schools. The Authority will forward to schools new WASNs for those students without a number.

All secondary schools with a Year 7 intake can send a complete list (spreadsheet) of Year 7 students entering their school, including the student’s legal surname, legal first name and date of birth and the Authority will look up the numbers on their behalf.

A reminder that details of how to register students can be found in the Data Procedures Manual 2023 found at Data Procedures Manual with links to assist schools using Integris/Reporting to Parents (RTP), Civica Maze, SEQTA, Synergetic, Administration of Schools (AoS) and Excel.

If a student arrives at your school from another school in Western Australia, or even from overseas/interstate, you have the ability to search in the Student Information Records System (SIRS) for that student’s Western Australian Student Number (WASN) using a family name, given name and date of birth.

All student registrations are recorded in SIRS by the end of Term 1. After this time, you will be able to search for students including the student’s previous school/s. You will know where to send a transfer note, if required.

1. Hover over Enrolments in the menu bar.
2. Click on Student Enrolment > Student Maintenance > Find Student Number (see image below).

The Find Student Number directory will appear (see image below). Enter the student’s Family Name, Given Name and Date of Birth.

3. Click Search.If the information you have entered exactly matches the information in SIRS, you will find a result even if the student is not at your school (see image below).

If the details you have requested are different from the information in SIRS (e.g. date of birth is different, Jackie is spelt as Jacky), no information will be found. In this case, please email numbers@scsa.wa.edu.au and provide the student’s:

• Family Name (Surname)
• Given Name (First Name)
• Date of Birth
• Academic Year
• Previous School (if known).

Please include your provider code in the email

Troubleshooting: Search WASN

1. What happens if the requested information does not show?

   Email numbers@scsa.wa.edu.au and provide student name, academic year and date of birth.

2. What happens when a single year (e.g. 2022 to 2022) is entered in the date range?

   Only a result for that year will be returned.

3. What does it mean when the Department of Education is shown as the student’s main provider?
   It means the student is likely to be under a Notice of Arrangements or may have been on the Whereabouts Unknown List (more likely with Years 7, 8, 9 and 10).
