Preparing for Exams
Alberta Education has
put together guides for parents:
A Grade 6 or 9 student who does not write the scheduled PATs will be marked either excused or absent.
Excused or Absent
Excused will be requested and negotiated ahead of time with the Principal for reasons which may include anxiety, a learning disability, etc., and the parent has a reason to want this excused PAT documented.
Absent will occur when the student is ill on the scheduled day or the parent chooses not to bring them to the PAT.
There are no academic consequences for either of the above.
