  2. SO WHAT LEVELS DO YOU EXPECT YOUR CHILD TO BE WORKING AT? • National Curriculum Levels range from level 1 to level 8, with level 8 being the most advanced. • It is expected that the majority of 11 year-old children will achieve level 4 by the end of Year 6 (currently around 75% achieve level 4 or above). • This is the level that the government consider to be the minimum required for children to be able to access the secondary school curriculum.

  3. Each level is divided into three sub levels, e.g. 3C, 3B and 3A: • C - the child has started to work at the level • B - working well within the level • A - has reached the top of the level and is working towards the next level

  4. In KS1 Children are expected to work their way through one level each year. • In KS2 children are expected to work their way through one level every 2 years.

  5. A child working at level 2B on exit from Year 2 would be expected to reach 3B on exit from Year 4 and 4B on exit from Year 6. • In Key Stage 3 most students are expected to progress by two sub-levels per year, this would mean that they progress by two whole levels from Key Stage 2 to the end of Year 9 (End of KS3)

  6. At the start of KS3 the College will undertake standardised CAT tests to help qualify progress data transferred from Junior schools. This helps to accurately identify learning profiles and targets for the end of year 9. Students need to consistently demonstrate they are operating at a particular level before it can be finally given at the end of year 9. This means that the learning journey from KS1 –KS3 is punctuated by apparent ‘ups’ and ‘downs’ in performance. These should stabilise over time. GCSE targets are then set against the KS3 levels. The tables attached should indicate the nationally expected progress at each key stage. Primary sources for Baseline data and Target setting • CAT tests • KS2 Data • Standardised Entrance Examinations Progress Indicators • Formative assessments • Summative assessments (at least two per half term, Christmas and Summer must include a Summative judgement based on a formal examination)

  7. Pupils are expected to make at least two levels of progress across Key Stage 3, and at least three levels of progress from Key Stage 2 (Year 6) to the end of Key Stage 4 (Year 11). The expected progress is detailed in the table below. 

  8. Tracking and Monitoring: Key Stage 3 Progress Chart Students who have a KS2 score of 4b or above are expected to make 2 full levels progress. Students who have less than this are predicted and expected to make less progress.

  9. The College uses the skills based Blooms Taxonomy to help students understand the hierarchical thinking processes that support movement through levels of the national curriculum. Level 2 typifies students displaying only knowledge recall or remembering, level 7 the skills associated with evaluation and creative thinking. These can be a useful ‘rule of thumb’ to help judge a students current operating level from formative and summative assessments.
