Pupils are set in classes which help them to progress at an appropriate pace and ensure a smooth transition from Primary School.

• Class teachers track pupil progress and ability and communicate with parents and form teachers.
• Form teachers regularly monitor pupil effort, behaviour and progress.
• The Form Teacher uses the pupil planner to communicate with parents if there is a difficulty with a particular subject
• or if they wish to draw a parent’s attention to their children’s achievements.
• Parents are encouraged to communicate any concerns they may have with their child’s form teacher or Head of Year.
• All pupils are encouraged to reflect on their progress, to set themselves challenging targets and to identify and carry out strategies for improvement.
• Support is available for children who are experiencing difficulties in acquiring the knowledge, skills and attitudes they need to become confident and successful learners.
