How am I informed about my child’s performance in the course?

You will receive an end of first term report which will analyse all of the data presented from homework, class activities and in the end-of-term tests. These reports give an overall ranking within the cohort and individual ranking by subject. The reports also identify strengths and weaknesses across all topics.

We monitor and continuously assess your child to ensure their performance is on target, therefore you can assume that your child is progressing well, unless we have specifically brought concerns to your attention.

Throughout the course, we offer top-ups to children based on their performance in class and at home. If your child is regularly being offered top-ups, you can infer that they are weak in multiple areas and need more help than other children. If your child has not been offered top-ups then it is usually a good sign that your child is performing in line with the cohort.

Later on in Year 5, when your child sits mock exams, you will also receive a report for each exam sat, which will provide a rank, and high, low and average scores of the cohort.
