How can I view class results for the NSW Syllabus?

Assessment results can be viewed and exported via the View Class Results option within a class. The data shown can be exported for you to save.

Main Screen Overview

Click into a class and click View Class Results. This will take you to the main screen overview.

From this screen, you can view accumulated individual student results, including A-E grade, average curriculum level, average growth, and pre-assessment and post-assessment results within each Strand section. A-E grading is based on a cumulative result and is a guideline only.

Click Numeracy Progression to view the National Numeracy Learning Progression within a class.

The A-E grade on the left side is averaged based on all assessments completed by the student for that strand. This grade will continue to update as the year progresses from semester to semester.

The arrows can sort the A-E grade from highest to lowest or lowest to highest.

Export Options

Once you have clicked on View Class Results, click Export Options to view the different options available to export your data. The Export Data (XXX) option allows you to download your data in different formats so you are able to import this back into the programme your school uses. For example, click Export Options (GradeXpert) to download data that is able to be imported into GradeXpert.

Change the year to download data for the year you would like data for.

Exporting data using the Export Data (XLSX) and (PDF) option is unable to be done for specific assessments. You will need to export the data and then manually add a filter to the spreadsheet, which will allow you to view specific assessments.

NSW Outcomes

Click on the NSW Outcomes tab to view a summary of data for each Focus Area from that strand. The outcomes tab illustrates the percentage of the class who have shown understanding within that Focus Area. This is the benefit of completing a Common Grade Assessment. Throughout the year, the percentages will continue to update as data is collected from the Focus Area assessments and the mid and post-assessments for the NSW Common Grade.

Strand Overview

The Strand Overview delivers a live collation of all assessment data within each strand. Strand Overview is a helpful and continuous checkpoint throughout the year and can assist with the following:

Triangulating and collating strand data for ongoing or end-of-semester reports.
Providing constant context of student achievement and growth across the strand to support planning.

Strand Overview provides an up-to-date evaluation of all data contained across each strand and includes the following:

Average NSW Syllabus level.
Overview identifying the percentage of understanding of the outcomes.
My Literacy and My Numeracy results.
Summary of student and class growth for each outcome.
Strand-based report comment export.

You can also switch to the Indicator Overview from here.

C.R - Continuum Results

The C.R function enables you to see the individual indicators students understood and misunderstood when using Sub-strand and Flexi assessments. The C.R function provides student data displayed at the indicator and aligned to the sequence of the assessment. Click C.R to be directed to this overview.

Click PRE Collate and Sort after a pre-assessment has been completed. This will sort the students with the most understanding to the students with the least understanding.

Hover over the Australian Curriculum code to show the indicator associated with the NSW outcomes. If it is a sub-strand assessment, you can also filter the results to look at the Content Descriptions.

Z.P.D - Zone of Proximal Development

The Z.P.D function offers a quick way to identify common misunderstandings within each group or class to assist with planning for grouping students and differentiating the curriculum.

Click PRE Collate and Sort to collate and sort your data. Students will appear from the highest level of understanding to the lowest level of understanding.

A class or group's Z.P.D is indicated in yellow highlighting, while the green, red and orange highlighting shows what the student understood, misunderstood or didn't attempt.

Clicking into a green or red square will show you the question the student was assessed against for the content descriptor.
