Upon entry, we use information from students' previous schools and prior assessments, where possible, to set minimum and also aspirational targets for all subjects. These targets are regularly reviewed between students and teachers; parents also receive regular information on their children’s progress against their targets. If a student is exceeding their goals, we review this with the student and may set a new aspirational target in celebration of that excellent progress. If a student is falling short, appropriate experienced staff will work with the student, teacher, and parent to identify any changes needed to further improve the student’s academic progress. Our approach is highly personalised, so targets remain flexible as part of our educational philosophy of providing the highest quality of learning.
