Understanding the Progress Descriptors

If at mid-year, a teacher considers your child to be:

• emerging or developing, they are still working towards meeting expectations, and their progress is not yet on track to meet end-of-year expectations for their year level.
• consolidating, proficient or exceeding, their progress is on track.

If at the end of a year, a teacher considers your child to be:

• proficient or exceeding, their progress and achievement has met curriculum expectations
• emerging, developing, or consolidating, they have made progress towards expectations and are still working towards achieving the expected outcomes for their year level. They have not met curriculum expectations for their year level.
