Safa Community School

Safa Community School's assessments takes into consideration the whole child. Safa observes communication skills, social development, behaviour, attitude, manners, physical development – both large and fine motor control and academic levels. Safa is also interested in specific talents in any field – musical, sporting or artistic, as well as academic. Assessments for Foundation 1 and Foundation 2 are based primarily on observation of the child at play, engaging her/him in conversation. Safa observes children at play looking at physical development and body awareness. Assessments for Year One to Eight involve basic mathematics, reading and comprehension, drawing and writing. The child is also asked to tell the assessor about him/herself and to engage in general conversation appropriate to his/her age.
