now ?

What has changed ?

• Children are assessed for attainment and progress that they make

What are we doing ?

• We are using Me and My Pupil Achievement Tracker .• This assesses children against all elements of the

curriculum for Reading, Writing, Mathematics and Science objectives

• Children are either -:• Emerging ( not yet achieved age related )• Expected (they have achieved age related)• Exceeded ( working at a greater depth within new

standards)

What are we doing ?

• Progress is measured in points .• By the end of the year our aim is for ALL

children to have made 4 points progress so that they are at least age related or beyond.

How will I know what my child is achieving ?

• We will continue to have termly parent conferences

• You will continue to receive a termly report card in December , Spring and Summer term which will show your child’s progress and attainment in these key subjects

• Teaching staff are available after school for quick questions or via appointment to provide further information
