Question 8 

How will the progress of my child be measured?

• Your child’s progress will be continually monitored by his/her class teacher.
• His/her progress will be reviewed formally with the Headteacher and SENCo every term in reading, writing and numeracy.
• At the end of each key stage (i.e. at the end of year 2 and year 6), all children are required to be formally assessed using Standard Assessment Tests (SATS). This is something the government requires all schools to do and are the results that are published nationally.
• Class teachers, teaching assistants and SENCo will meet three times a year to discuss the impact of any interventions your child has been receiving. These will then be continued or altered as necessary.
• The progress of children with an EHC Plan will be formally reviewed at an Annual Review with all adults involved in the child’s education.
• Regular book scrutinies and lesson observations will be carried out by the SENCo and other members of the Senior Leadership Team to ensure that the needs of all children are met and that the quality of teaching and learning is high.
