Curriculum Update
ICAS 2019
This year we are again offering the opportunity for students to participate in the ICAS tests at Dayboro SS. ICAS is developed by UNSW Global, a wholly owned subsidiary of the University of New South Wales, with over 35 years’ experience in educational assessments.
ICAS is designed to target students’ higher-order thinking and problem-solving skills in English, Mathematics and Science.
Your child is invited to participate in 2019. From 2019 the ICAS tests will be conducted online, later in the year and have increased in price to $14.50 per test.
This year we are offering three tests: Science, Maths and English. Parent information letters were sent home with all students in Years 2-6 today.
If your child(ren) would like to participate in one or more of these tests, please return the permission slip and all entry fees by:
Friday, 9 August, 2019. NO ENTRIES CAN BE ACCEPTED AFTER THIS DATE.
Regards, Linda Smith (Head of Curriculum)
