In School

Children are given a monthly report with an effort grade, an attainment grade and comments. Termly parent/teacher meetings are an opportunity to discuss the child's progress academically and socially. Children are given individual goals and targets each term.

In July, end of year exams are held for all academic subjects. Project work is assessed throughout the year.

Children are given the NFER Nelson reading and mathematics assessments which provide a standardized measurement of the child's reading age and score. These are given twice in each year - as the child enters the class in September, and as they leave the class in July.

Children in Year 2 (the end of Keystage 1) and Year 6 (the end of Keystage 2) take the Standardized Assessment Tests, or "SATs". These exams, from England, provide an accurate placing of the child on a National scale. In Year 2 the children are tested in English and Maths, and in Year 6 in English, Maths and Science. During the past two years, our children have been well above average in their scores.
