Reporting your son’s achievement
Throughout the academic year you will receive regular updates on your son’s achievement.
For all students in Key Stage 3/4 (Years 7-11) you will receive Achievement Cards twice a year and once a year you will receive a school report, as well as having the opportunity to attend parents’ evening once a year.
At Key Stage 4 we are experiencing the introduction of new GCSEs (with our remaining few subjects starting in September 2017). Students are now assessed under a new grading system based on numbers 9-1, with 9 being the highest and 1 being the lowest.
At Key Stage 3 we have also adopted this grading system based on numbers 9-1. A table showing how these number grades map onto the old letter grades and levels can be seen here.
