Assessment
Pupils at Alexandra School make outstanding progress in all aspects of their learning; the assessment systems are in place to ensure that each pupil progresses to the best of their ability.
Individual learning journeys
Active assessment
Pupils take an active part in assessment, on a daily basis through discussions about their work and the progress they have made.
They are encouraged to take responsibility for their own learning, growing to understand, and potentially contribute to, their personal targets in all aspects of their education.
Assessment systems
National assessment systems are used, dovetailed into Alexandra Progress Ladders, helping us to target and measure pupil’s progress over a period of time.
Our Progress Ladders cover both the core curriculum, and the broader social, emotional and behavioural aspects of learning.
Sharing assessment
Assessment information is shared regularly with parents, communicated via each pupil’s individual ‘Learning Journey’.
These personal documents detail annual targets, a breakdown of smaller steps of progress, and celebrate the journey pupils have made over the course of a year.
Pupil progress in reading, writing and maths, in line with national expected standards, can be found on the DfE website.
