More details will follow as they become available! We will also be talking to you about your child’s progress at key times throughout the year. We measure all pupil progress and attainment by using the National Curriculum expectations for each year group. We use forms of ongoing teacher assessment to help us when we are planning the next steps for your children. These also tell us whether children are working at, above or below national expectations for their age.
