Progress reports - Issued 2 times per year

Year 7 to Year 11 Grading Tr4 Tr5 Tr6 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 Students are graded using a 12-point system. Tr4 Tr5 Tr6 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 Students will be given an end of Year 8 target To help you determine progress made towards these targets, we use a descriptor Exceeding - the student is on-track to exceed their target Expected the student is on-track to meet their target Emerging the student is not on-track to meet their target

Doddle Progress: What will you see? When you log in to Doddle Parent, you will see progress data where it is exists in that academic year for every subject switched on. You will see the most recent red, amber, green and ‘recently assessed’ skill in each subject.

What will you see? There is a panel entitled “What does this information mean?” This panel explains what the icons mean and how the skills are ordered. You see the most recent red, amber and green skills but you can drill down to view older skills by expanding each category.

Homework – What will you see?

Mr Milner (Head of Year 7 & Transition Manager)

First impressions of the school Lots of people, but I knew there were teachers to help me Thought I was going to get lost more than I actually did I thought it was big but now it seems like it has shrunk Students and teachers helped me find my way New names to learn, but I got used to them The uniform makes me feel more grown up Teachers give you more independence I really like the competitive sports The older kids seem friendly The teachers are really nice Small fish in a big pond Happy & nervous It’s massive!

First impressions of your form group It feels like we can trust each other as we’d met at Taster days and knew each other Lots of different characters so lots of different friends to make It feels like a team Everyone seems to have confidence My tutor is amazing A mini-family All in the same boat, and we soon got to know everyone We get on really well and work as a team I have made lots of new friends We were all shy, but soon we started talking We all encourage each other so much
