Creating Futures: Report Information
Your child will have recently sat assessments across their subject areas. They will be provided with a progress code, which has been calculated compared to students of similar starting points. The starting points for Year 7 have been calculated from their SATs results. Year 8 & 9 starting points have been calculated from baseline assessments sat at the start of Year 7 and/or Year 8.
We expect students to be ‘Independent’ or ‘Engaged’ learners, and we track and recognise students with positive learning behaviours. If your child has a ‘Coasting’ or ‘Unacceptable’ in a subject area you will also see a reason as to why this is e.g., Class Learning, Home Learning or Behaviour.
