1. Staunton & Corse C of E Academy Parent information evening
2/3/16

2. Why has assessment changed?
Government initiative ‘Assessment without levels’.
No more level 2 as expected achievement for Y2 and level 4 for Y6.
Each primary school free to choose own systems.
Old system had been altered from original intentions ie abc

3. What system are Staunton & Corse Academy adopting?
We are using ‘Below’, ‘Within’ and ‘Secure’ bands.
Bands generally apply to year groups i.e. 1 – 6.
These are for end of year expectations so most pupils will not reach within or secure until June/July.
Some pupils may be working, for example, at band 3 whilst in Year 5. .
