Termly Progress & Attainment Reports
Attainment & Progress
Every term, in week five, students complete a series of assessments that are designed to examine their knowledge, understanding and skills from across the term. The scores from the week five assessments are shown as a grade and can be found in the the current mark column of their termly report (see below). The scores from the previous terms are also shown for comparison purposes; for example, TP1 refers to the score achieved in half-term one and TP2 refers to the score achieved in half-term two.
