Assessment

• At Grange Park Junior School we assess our children to close any gaps in learning and and ensure all children reach their full potential.  
• Assessment for learning in all subjects takes place through: observations, speaking and listening activities, written work,  classroom participation and weekly tests such as spellings and times tables - all of which support our children to make good and better progress.
• In addition, termly testing takes place to support teacher judgements in English, mathematics and science.
• Teacher assessments are recorded on Target Tracker on a regular basis to monitor children's attainment and progress.  
• Pupils are given targets that are derived from the National Curriculum.
• Parents are encouraged to attend parents' evenings in the Autumn and Spring term.  This is where their child's attainment, progress  and  next steps are shared.
• In the Summer term parents are provided with a full written report and have the option to discuss the report in a Summer parent open evening. 

Year 6

At the end of Year 6, pupils are formally assessed in reading, grammar, punctuation and spelling, writing and maths, through the end of Key Stage 2 national tests (SATs).
