Staff Action Needed
IB Year 2 Predicted Grades (October 26)- All Y2 IB teachers need to submit realistically optimistic predicted marks for their students in PowerSchool. These mark’s should reflect what is achievable on the student’s best day during the testing season in May. You will balance your evidence as a teacher with teacher professional experience with predicted grades. Look at the Matrix section of the Dragon’s Lair for specific instructions of how to input these. See Jemison and Kelly if you have questions as this snapshot of predicted scores is used for university admissions.
