The Year 8 test will take place during Period 1-2 and Year 10 in Period 3-4. Students will have normal lessons for the remainder of the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Year 8 &amp; 10 Religious Education Tests will provide valuable information regarding your child\u2019s learning in Religious Education over the last two years, their understanding of the Catholic faith and their overall progress in Religious Education.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The test will consist of 50 multiple-choice questions and will be scored out of a possible 50 marks. Questions are based on the Stage 4 (Years 7 and 8) and Stage 5 (Years 9 and 10) Religious Education Curriculum. The test will be completed online through an external assessment organisation, Janison Insights, who will analyse the results and produce the reports and certificates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Students will need to have their <strong>laptop fully charged<\/strong> for the day, so that they can undertake the test during the scheduled session. They may also bring a book to read silently once they have completed the test.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Any student absent on the day will need to sit the test on the Friday of the same week (24 October).
