  10. Controlled Assessments • Controlled Assessments are supervised internal assessments • They allow students to produce an extended personal response to an area of the subject studied • Marks from Controlled Assessments contribute to the overall grade that students will achieve at the end of Year 11 • Controlled Assessments take place throughout Key Stage 4 • It is imperative that students attend all their relevant assessments, including the preparatory lessons

  11. Target Setting Students’ targets are set at the beginning of Year 10. Prior assessment data is used (including indicators from the end of Key Stage 3 Levels) to guide decision-making. Year 10 Form Tutors discuss the targets set with students and their parents in the Target Setting Meetings held in Term 1. These targets are then used for Tracking throughout Key Stage 4.

  12. Tracking Student Progress There are three Tracking Periods throughout the academic year: • Tracking Period 1 – November (Years 7-11 and Sixth Form) • Tracking Period 2 – January/February (Years 7-11 and Sixth Form) • Tracking Period 3 – April (Years 7- 10)

  13. Tracking Student Progress Teachers are required to record the following information: • A current grade for each student. The current grade should be the teacher’s professional judgement based on the student’s performance to date • An assessment as to whether or not each student is Above Target, On Target, or Below Target to achieve their target grade • An ‘Attitude to Learning’ assessment (criteria is published in the Homework Diary) Following each Tracking Period, all parents will receive a ‘Progress Report’. This report will include the ‘Attitude to Learning’ assessment and an attendance percentage.
