1. Assessment &

2. Reporting

Enabling students to achieve their academic,

personal and social potential.

The goal of all assessment is to

judge how the student is progressing

towards achieving their potential at

the end of Key Stage Four.

Year 7 students will be taking at least

two formal tests in most of their

subjects this year.

Their teachers will then compare their test results to each student’s ‘flight path.’

A student’s ‘flight path’ is a 9-1 GCSE grade which we would be expecting them to achieve at the end of Key Stage Four.

A student’s ‘flight path’ is based on their starting point at the end of Key Stage Two.

New GCSE

grade:

Provisional forecast of how current GCSE grades will approximate to the

new GCSE grades although this may vary slightly between subjects

9 Top A* performers; around the top half of the 6.8 per cent who got A*s this

year are likely to achieve this.

8 Approximately the bottom half of the 6.8 per cent who got A*s this year are

likely to achieve this.

7 Equivalent to an A grade pass.

6 Top third of a current B grade pass.

5 Bottom two thirds of a current B grade pass.

4 Equivalent to a current C grade pass.

3 Equivalent to a current D grade pass.

2 Equivalent to a current E grade pass.

1 Equivalent to grade F and G passes.

Assessment becomes

Grade 5

Eventually students will

be graded according to

actual GCSE criteria.

We will track, monitor and report the following information:

a) Progress made.

b) Assessment results.

c) Type of student.

d) Tutor comments.

Reports will state whether the student is exceeding, meeting or falling below expected progress.

Progress judgements will be largely or exclusively based on objective assessments.

Where appropriate, the

report will include the result

of the latest formal

assessment in that subject.

Reigate 5:

1) Motivation for learning

2) Behaviour for learning

3) Organisation for learning

4) Co-operation for learning

5) Mindset for learning

Each scored on a 1 – 4 basis with staff and parents given best fit descriptors for each criterion.

Every Year 7 student will have one tutor report at

the end of the year.

This will be a free hand comment by the tutor

and reflect the achievements by the student over

the year.

Will be holistic i.e. reflect the student overall and

not just specific aspects or achievements.

A full report home will look like this with an

Tutor group awards Year 7 – 11 Tutor groups At the end of each week the aggregate achievement and behaviour for all students in each tutor group will be added up. For each year group the form with the most aggregate points will receive £10 towards a form activity during the year. Each week the points will be reset so that each form has a fresh start to win from each Monday.
