"ANALYSIS OF DATA IS THE MOST IMPORTANT STEP AS IT IS WHAT WE DO WITH THE DATA COLLATED THAT WILL HAVE THE MOST IMPACT ON MEETING LEARNERS’ NEEDS."

Assessment in the Senior Phase – S4-S6 - Tracking, Monitoring and Interventions

Pupil attainment in every subject is tracked and monitored. At stages throughout the year pupil attainment is reported on to parents/carers. Teachers continually work in partnership with pupils and home to improve attainment by regular contact via text message, email and parent/carer meetings. Teachers engage pupils in learning conversations continuously about the next steps they should take to improve their attainment. All staff use tracking to monitor and improve attainment.

Mentoring

Principal Teachers of Guidance and Depute Head teachers will act as mentors for pupils identified through the Tracking and Monitoring of attainment. Pupils learn study skills, effective time management, and organisational skills. There is a focus on the supporting the wellbeing of the pupil throughout the session.

A major part of this process will be enabling them to reflect on the progress made in chosen subjects and help them identify the steps needed to take next to make consistent progress throughout the session. The mentoring is related to support needed that has been identified through our tracking and monitoring system.

We hope that working in partnership with pupils we will be able to provide support to enable them to achieve fantastic results.
