Dear Parent,
We are pleased to inform that the 2010 International Competitions and Assessments for Schools (ICAS) is now opened for registration at our centre. For over 20 years ICAS has taken place each year throughout Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Malaysia, Brunei, the Pacific region and South Africa.
ICAS provides an opportunity for all students to gain a measure of their own achievement in an external assessment situation. It provides schools and teachers with comprehensive reporting results and also gives parents helpful information regarding their child's performance.
All students receive a certificate and an individual student report indicating which questions they answered correctly, as well as the average mark of the state/ region. The student report is also useful for highlighting student strengths and weaknesses in the skills and processes of the subject taken.
Certificates are awarded for each year level in Malaysia as follows:
♣ High Distinction to the top 1% of entrants
♣ Distinction to the next 10% of entrants
♣ Credit to the next 20% of entrants
♣ Participation to all other participating students
Medals are awarded to the top student(s) in each year level in school in Malaysia at the discretion of EAA.
Please feel free to contact Aileen/ Christine at 016-2091989 or 03-78802460 for further information.
