At Christchurch Junior School we continually monitor children’s progress and learning. Teachers will assess your child’s progress by marking written work, observing practical tasks, listening to reading, talks and discussions as well as setting tests to measure their learning. We aim to identify children’s achievements and set targets for future progress.

A score of 100 represents the expected standard for Year 6.
The range of scaled scores available for each KS2 test is between 80 and 120.
- 80 is the lowest scaled score that can be awarded
- 120 is the highest scaled score
A pupil awarded a scaled score of 100 or more has met the expected standard in the test.
A pupil awarded a scaled score of 99 or less has not met the expected standard in the test.
Progress from Key Stage One to Two

| Progress measures: KS1 to KS2 | |
| Reading progress score | 0.19 |
| Writing progress score | -1.97 |
