This week, our Year 7 and 8 pupils have been sitting the Pearson Progression Tests - externally standardised assessments which give us a clear, reliable benchmark of pupil progress against international expectations 📝
At this point in their school journey, it's also important that pupils begin to experience more formal exam conditions in a supportive way. These assessments help them build confidence, practise key skills such as managing time - and start to understand what will be expected of them as they move towards IGCSE. ⌛
Just as importantly, the outcomes help us identify strengths and gaps, so we can adapt teaching and put the right support in place to ensure every pupil is well prepared for the next stage of their learning 💫
