Al Siddiq International secondary school successfully held the Mid-Semester Report distribution for the first term on Friday, 27 September 2024. This event marked an important moment for both students and parents to evaluate the learning progress achieved during the first half of the semester.
The Principal of SMP Al-Siddiq, Mr. Yusuf Yudhana, stated that the RTS serves as an opportunity for students to assess their academic achievements and identify areas for improvement in preparation for the remainder of the semester.
“We hope that the RTS results will motivate students to continue improving their performance and achieving the goals they have set,” he said.
The report distribution began at 1:00 p.m., attended by parents who received direct updates on their children’s progress from the class teachers. Each homeroom teacher presented the academic achievements and attitudes of students across all subjects that were assessed during the Mid-Semester Summative Assessment (STS), conducted from 9–13 September 2024. The subjects included Mathematics, Bahasa Indonesia, English, Arabic, ICT, Islamic Studies, Physical Education, Civics, Social Studies, and Science.
Parents expressed their satisfaction with the structured and transparent reporting system.
“Through this meeting, we can better understand our children’s learning progress and determine how we can support them at home,” said one parent.
Beyond being an academic evaluation tool, the RTS also served as a moment of reflection for students to assess their own learning outcomes. The school provided additional guidance for students whose grades were below standard, ensuring that every student has the opportunity to improve and strengthen their understanding of the material.
Teachers and students agreed that the report serves as a stepping stone towards greater achievements at the end of the semester.
“We hope this evaluation fosters renewed enthusiasm for learning. Every student has the chance to improve their results in the future,” said Ms Wafda, one of the teachers.
With the enthusiasm and motivation sparked by the report distribution, SMP Al-Siddiq International School hopes that all students will continue to maximise their potential as they prepare for the upcoming end-of-semester examinations.
