Developing responsible global citizens and leadership through academic excellence

Today your child or children will share their student portfolio with you. Please allow them to take you on a journey of their learning by allowing them to lead the discussion as you view their portfolio. Articulating their learning and development in this way, is key to their growth as an independent and responsible learner. The information included in the portfolio is equally as important as that included in the progress report which you can also access from Friday 10 February at 4pm.

As your child shares their portfolio and progress report with you, take the time to acknowledge, praise and question him/her further about their learning and the goals they feel they need to set.

For information about how to download a progress report please click here. To access the reports, go directly to the portal.cdnis.edu.hk The login details, i.e. user ID and password, are identical to those used to access ECA information. Please email it@cdnis.edu.hk if you have any problems.

Assessment is an integral part of the teaching and learning programme at CDNIS. The purpose of the Progress Report is to inform about learning in terms of knowledge, skills and understanding and identify areas where improvement is required. Teachers will use a combination of narrative statements and descriptors within the progress report to identify your child’s academic progress, personal and social development.

Academic progress
• Exceeds Expectations
• Meets Expectations
• Approaching Expectations

Academic descriptors will be allocated to show your childs’ progress based on specific expectations for curriculum areas including Inquiry, Literacy, Mathematics, Languages (Chinese Studies and French for Grade 5 & 6 students), Physical Education and Performing Arts.

Personal and social development:
• Consistently
• Usually
• Occasionally

Personal and Social descriptors will be allocated to show your childs’ development with critical life long learning skills, attitudes and qualities.

Finally, as this is our first attempt with posting progress reports electronically, we are keen to gather your thoughts i.e. what you liked and things we can improve upon. We look forward to receiving your feedback.
