Student Progress We are introducing a new “life without levels” approach to reporting on progress over time for each student at Sir Thomas Boteler Church of England High School. This is a new system that has been adopted by many schools across the country and was developed as a part of a DfE innovation project. We fully understand that the rate of change imposed on us in education can be confusing. Making a difference Anna Mawb

Student Progress We want to let students and parents know the progress they are making in a simple and easy to understand way We don’t want to limit what students think they can achieve, so don’t set ‘end of Year targets’ but end of school targets We want to celebrate the progress of all students, from all starting points We want students to understand that if they are currently not making expected progress, this doesn’t need to be a bad thing Anna Mawb

Student Progress Key Pieces of Work are completed to inform each assessment, recording and reporting window Students are told when these are taking place and must prepare for them Assessment cycles are called Working At (WA) points to determine how much progress a child is making at that moment in time These happen 4 times a year and reported to parents Anna Mawb

Student Progress Anna Mawb So, rather than reporting  a level to students and parents, we are reporting the progress they are making towards achieving their forecast grades at GCSE.  This what the report that goes home to parents looks like: Making a difference Anna Mawb
