Progress and Outcomes Assessment
Accurate and on-going assessment is fundamental to the setting of challenging targets and creating stimulating opportunities for learning. At The Grove, we use a range of assessment tools in order to track and measure academic progress over time.
For pupils not engaged in subject specific study and for pupils working within pre-key stage standards 1 to 6, we use BARICS (Brent Assessment Route I Can System) B levels.
B1-B4 is the generic pre-subject specific area of the system where pupils are likely to be working within the engagement level. It enables teachers to assess pupils’ participation, engagement and preferences in relation to a wide range of experiences. B1-B4 focuses on supporting pupils to develop the pre-requisite skills that will enable them to access subject specific learning within our differentiated curriculum.
Pupils working Post B4 are working within our semi-formal curriculum and within the key stage 1 curriculum. BARICS covers a number of curriculum strands and pupils are assessed in the following areas:
- Reading
- Writing
- Number
- Geometry & Measure
For pupils working within the curriculum at Key Stage 2 and above we have formulated our own assessment framework which we have named Steps.
A detailed Annual Analysis and Report on Pupil Attainment and Progress is submitted to the Governing Body and termly updates are provided through our KPI reporting process.
