Emerging: the student only occasionally demonstrates the described behaviour
Developing: the student frequently demonstrates the described behaviour
Established: the student nearly always demonstrates the described behaviour
Inconsistent: the student demonstrates the behaviour in some settings but not all (e.g., in some subjects but not in others, or when tasks are hands-on but not when tasks are more passive)
