Assessment

Assessment at Key Stage Three:

Aims:
• To show pupils that their work is valuable and matters
• To get pupils to take responsibility for their own learning and progress
• For pupils to get regular feedback to aid progress
• For pupils to experience a wide range of assessment tasks
• For pupils to have, and know, their flightpath and be working towards achieving them

Pupils will complete 5 key assessment pieces a year, which will be assessed using progress criteria and flightpath.

Assessment at Key Stage Four:

Aims:
• To show pupils that their work is valuable and matters
• To get pupils to take responsibility for their own learning, progress and exam preparation
• For pupils to get regular feedback to aid progress
• For pupils to experience assessment tasks that reflect the GCSE examination
• For pupils to have, and know, their target grade and be working towards achieving them
• For pupils to achieve their predictions in the final examination.

Pupils will complete 6 assessment pieces a year. They will also complete questions in class and for homework which will be peer and teacher marked. Therefore, all pupils at Key Stage Four should have homework every week and often this is revision homework to prepare for assessments.
