Assessment

Students will be assessed twice a year, across their subjects, in a focussed assessment cycle.

For Key Stage 3 we use Rank Order Assessment (ROA) which is used in many schools, locally and in the Greenshaw Learning Trust. It is the most accurate way to track a student’s progress from assessment to assessment in subjects and gives students a true picture of the impact. You can also find the response to some frequently asked questions below.

For KS4 and 5 we use examination style papers, either a full past paper or an amalgamation of past paper questions. In autumn of year 10 and year 12 we only give a percentage as they have only covered a small proportion of the course and these are done in class. From the summer of year 10 and year 12, all assessments happen in the hall and are graded using the exam board grade boundaries for the course.
