Assessment System for the New National Curriculum 2014

With the removal of 'levels' to track a child’s progress, schools are expected to  design their own system to track progress. At Hill View Infant School we have a new system for assessing pupil progress and attainment in the new national curriculum.

The system is based around the statutory requirements for each year group as laid out in the programmes of study in the new national curriculum. Instead of assessing against NC levels the system allows assessment of statutory requirements / objectives in reference to particular programmes of study.

The below booklet is aimed at providing the necessary information to parents so that you feel fully aware of your own child’s progress and attainment at our school.
