4. KS3 – Expected Progress • By the end of KS3, students are expected to have made 2 whole levels of progress. • For English and Maths, this is from their KS2 SAT. • For other subjects, targets are set from baseline tests completed in the first half term of Year 7. • Levels recorded at the data grab are ‘working at’ levels – this is based on their performance across all areas of the subject and not just on their last assessment. • Levels are recorded as being A, B or C. This means that if a student is 5C, they are working at the bottom of a Level 5 and we would then expect to see progress being made towards gaining a B or an A in this level over a number of data grabs. • It is not the case that we would expect to see levels go up every 6 weeks.

5. KS4 – Expected progress Teacher predictions recorded each half-term These predictions are what each teacher believes a student will achieve at the end of their GCSE course – based on assessments, effort & attitude For some students and some subjects, there may be little or no change – particularly if students are performing well
