Talking Teaching

A New Approach to Measuring Student Success with Melbourne Metrics


Listen Later

Talking Teaching explores how Melbourne Metrics is transforming student assessment by going beyond academics. We speak with Professor Sandra Milligan from the University of Melbourne, leading Melbourne Metrics, and Principal Jonathan Walter of Carey Baptist Grammar School, an early adopter. They discuss the limitations of traditional metrics like ATAR and the development of alternative tools like the 'ATAR Plus' model. This approach balances academic rigor with personal growth, offering a more holistic view of student achievement. Hear how this new model is positively impacting students, parents, and schools, shaping the future of assessment.


Professor Sandra Milligan is the Executive Director of Melbourne Metrics and expert in Assessment Research

Jonathan Walter is the Principal of Carey Baptist Grammar School
