Progression model
Student knowledge is coherently and logically sequenced in the curriculum so that it can develop incrementally over time. Student work - as seen in lesson observations, workbooks, practicals and summative assessments - should demonstrate efficient and meaningful acquisition of knowledge.
Our approach to assessment and feedback is designed to support the progression model by:
- Providing relevant, clear and helpful information about the current skills and knowledge of the learners
- Providing students with regular opportunities to recall and practise previously learned skills and knowledge
- Providing opportunities for misconceptions to be addressed so that students overcome these in future work.
What will be reported to parents/carers?
Reports will be sent out twice a year and will contain students mark for their assessment and an ACR score.
The ACR sore will outline from 1-3 how well a student is meeting our HAB values of Ambition, Compassion and Respect and will measure effort alongside attainment to inform parents of their daughters’ overall progress.
ACR scores:
3: Almost always demonstrates these behaviours and value
2: Often demonstrates these behaviours and value
1: Rarely demonstrates these behaviours and value
