Years 11 and 12 Moderation

Years 9–12 Learning organise Moderation for Year 11 and 12 teachers. Teachers from Government, Catholic and Independent schools meet twice each year.

Moderation provides teachers with an opportunity to:

  • work on how to improve student learning outcomes
  • improve consistency of judgements.

This supports teachers to provide students with feedback to progress learning.

2023 Moderation Dates

  • Tuesday, 14 March
  • Friday, 1 September

14 March

Around 1300 teachers from all sectors; Government, Catholic and Independent schools participated in the first Years 11 and 12 Moderation Day for the year. Eighty meetings were held online covering 101 courses.

We appreciate the support received from schools in allowing teachers to participate in the process and also the community in allowing these valuable days to occur.

The moderation reports for these meetings will be available from the beginning of Term 2. We look forward to Years 11 and 12 Moderation in September and the opportunity to further develop the knowledge built upon this year
