Illness Misadventure Application (IMA) – Reminder about Documentation
Thank you for your ongoing support of the College whilst we continue to navigate the impacts of COVID-19 on student learning. The Curriculum page (available via the Parent Portal and Pymble Knowledge) contains our Assessment Related Policies and Procedures booklet and the Illness Misadventure Application (IMA).
Please note that relevant documentation is required (i.e. a medical certificate) and will be requested by the Curriculum Office should an application be received without the documentation. Also, ensure that the description is sufficient to provide context about the issues arising as this helps determine which special consideration(s) may be appropriate.
Mr Jake Plaskett
