Assessment and reporting
A personalised approach to assessment that provides a framework for learner progressionAssessment at Martin High School is:
- Accurate and consistent
- Honest and ambitious
- Appropriate, meaningful and understandable
- Inspires greater effort through feedback and support
- Raises expectations and standards
The model for Key Stage Three:
- At KS3 we will use a model where learners are assessed relative to where they are expected to be for their given year group
- Learners are assessed on the number of Key performance indicators that they are able to meet
- The expectation relates to what a learner should be capable of achieving at this point for their year group
- This is relative to the work/topics covered in the subject at that point
The model:

What will you get home?
- Each year we will officially track your child’s progress at three key points
- At these points the report home will include a reference to the progress your child is making, current grade and your child’s effort grade
- Your child’s current grade will be preceded by their year group e.g. A year 7 report will contain 7B,7W,7S
- As we get closer to the end of the year, your child will make progress towards an ‘End of Year target grade’.
