12. Standards and Achievement Mr Templeman-Wright Deputy Headteacher

13. Standards and Achievement Key Points: How do we do it – strategies that deliver success for all? – PiXL membership x 600+ = schools network with our own PiXL Associate – Our targets for students come from ‘FFT D’ estimates (top 25% Nationally) note ‘school’s actual 2013 results = value added factor – FFTD – 85% (5+ A* - C passes) actual 99.4% = +14.4% factor and FFTD 63% inc. English and Maths, actual 63% – FFTD Notice: Student estimates may change due to the inclusion of a new ‘output area classification’ factor – Individual One to one meetings with students x 3 per year to review progress (Yr.9 x 2) – We issue grade reports x 3 per year to monitor and report progress which we internally monitor on a further 3 occasions per year. We state ‘current performance’ and FFT D estimates – In addition we offer: One to one and small group teaching and support, additional lessons afterschool, additional GCSE equivalent options, bespoke timetables, early entry in Maths and English (iGCSE V AQA Homeboard issue), outstanding teaching and a whole school commitment to achieving success.

14. Standards and Achievement Key Points - continued: – We focus on reporting ‘indicative’ grades i.e. C1, C2, C3 – We focus on a minimum of two sub-levels progression per year e.g. Student ‘A’ in July of Year 9 = English C1 Student ‘A’ in July of Year 10 = B2 Student ‘A’ in July of Year 11 = A3. – We expect students to: complete all set homework, read and action all assessment comments by their teachers, attend extra classes, complete all classwork and ask for help. It is a positively interactive learning collaboration to ensure all students make a minimum of 3 levels of progress re: KS2 (L5 – E grade) and KS4 (L8 -B grade).
