What was good

Most lessons feature good learning with a significant

minority that are outstanding. Most lessons are planned well and challenge and enthuse the students.

Recent significant improvements in marking and assessment procedures contribute well to improved progress over time. Students are now provided with better and clearer information about their work and what they need to do to improve.

Please read ‘Effective Feedback’ collated by NCH posted

on the school blog- sharing of good practice

What to improve..

To improve our literacy marking using whole school protocol

To make our marking smarter – Planning for marking = Max impact on progress vs. min time taken

To ensure that students are actually using our feedback to make progress
