Assessment and Reporting

Each subject assesses against a range of competencies which you can see on the subject pages in this website. 

Pupil progress is measured following descriptors for each competency at the following levels Emerging, Developing, Secure and Mastery.

These levels equate to an overall grade at the grading points as follows:

Mastery - A*

Secure - A

Developing - B

Emerging - C

Pupils also receive levels for their Learning Habits focusing on Organisation, Engagement with Learning and Working with Others. The levels for each with be Exceeding Expectations, Meeting Expectations or Not Meeting Expectations. The descriptors for CHS Learning Habits are linked here.
