Congratulations to all students who participated in the highly challenging ICAS assessments last term. The University of New South Wales offers an International Competition and Assessment for Schools (ICAS) in English, Writing, Mathematics, Science, and Digital Technologies for students in Years 2 to 12. ICAS assessments have taken place annually in schools for over thirty years and in twenty countries.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

ICAS Assessments are designed to recognise academic excellence, with students assessed on their ability to apply classroom learning to new contexts using higher-order thinking and problem-solving skills.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Participation in the 2025 ICAS assessments was open to all Domremy students. All students who participated should feel proud of themselves for their efforts. Students who undertake the ICAS assessment are ranked based on their percentile in each year level across every participating state and country.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

ICAS grading and awards are based on comparative percentages:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The top 1% of participants will receive a high distinction.<\/span><\/p>\n

The next 10% of participants receive a distinction.<\/span><\/p>\n

The next 25% of participants receive a credit.<\/span><\/p>\n

The next 10% of participants receive a merit.<\/span><\/p>\n

Remaining participants get a participation.<\/span><\/p>\n

ICAS has developed a<\/span> helpful blog<\/b><\/a> that can be used by families to learn about how they can analyse their daughter\u2019s ICAS results.<\/span><\/p>\n

We extend our congratulations to the following students who achieved exceptional results in this challenge.<\/span><\/p>\n
