Each report includes a judgement on your child's attitude to learning in the classroom and attitude to homework - how the student approaches learning outside of lessons.

The report will also include information on your child’s attendance for the academic year to date, however, this information is also available to parents and carers on Arbor at any time.

Students in Key Stage 4 and Key Stage 5 are given a MEG target grade. As a school we use Alps to generate these targets based on a student’s KS2 results.  Alps uses full national datasets from the DfE each year to generate Minimum Expected Grades (MEGs) that reflect progress made by students in the top 25% of schools and colleges.

MEG target grades are just a starting point however and we do not consider these as a ceiling in terms of what students can go on to achieve. Each year, many of our students exceed these challenging targets through hard work, dedication, and focus.

Year 10 and Year 11 will also receive a GCSE grade for their most recent assessment and Year 12 and Year 13 an A Level grade. In addition, Year 10 – 13 students will receive an estimated final grade, this represents the predicted grade for the final summer examinations.
