Audit Scores

Students were issued with their Term 3 audit scores last Friday, so I thought this would be a good time to remind everybody how the audit scores are formulated.

Each teacher assigns a whole number audit score using the criteria below - 1 being the lowest score and 5 being the highest.  This means that each individual student receives a whole number score for each class that they take - for most students that means 8 scores.  These 8 scores are then averaged to give the overall audit score.  For example, if a student receives the following individual scores:

4   4   3   5   4   3   4   4   

This gives a total of 31.  When we divide this by 8 to get the average we see that the overall audit score would be 3.88 (rounded up to 2 decimal places).  You can then apply this average score to the criteria to see the description of what this means in relation to the Raise Responsibility system we have at the College.


Audit Criteria:
SCORE Link to Raise Responsibility
1 Student constantly displays Level A behaviour:
They are noisy, out of control, and disrespectful. They require constant and close supervision to keep them
in order.
2 Student constantly displays Level B behaviour: Their actions consistently bother others and they don’t
abide by the courtesies of class procedures and accepted standards. They bully and violate the rights of
others and the teacher has to constantly “boss” them to get them to behave appropriately.
3 Student sometimes displays Level B behaviour:
On occasion, the student’s actions bother others and they sometimes show disregard for the courtesies of class operations and accepted standards. They can at times bully and violate the rights of others and the teacher has occasionally had to remind them how to behave appropriately.
4 Student typically displays Level C behaviour:
The student complies with expected standards. They are co-operative and respectful of others. They can be
relied upon to behave responsibly but they tend to be externally motivated.
5 Student constantly displays Level D behaviour:
The student has integrated the regulation of their own behaviour. They display self-discipline, initiative and
the practical wisdom to recognize and make the right choices. They are internally motivated to behave responsibly.

I am really pleased to see how seriously the students are taking their audit scores and how determined they are to improve and reach their goals.  This shows great character and a winning attitude by always striving to be the best that they can be.
