Attitude to Learning

At Star, we place a huge emphasis on developing each child's Attitude to Learning (ATL). We want our
children to be creative, curious and life-long learners. We expect all children to fully engage in all learning
opportunities, take responsibility for their own progress and make positive contributions in all contexts.
Children are assessed on their attitude to learning in every lesson as well as an overall judgement at the end
of every term.

When assessing a child's attitude to learning, teachers make a judgement. The four judgements are:

Teacher Attitude to Learning

Judgement
Outstanding ● Student is fully engaged in learning and exceeds expectations of work
produced
● Student is demonstrating attributes of an ambitious, independent learner
who takes responsibility for their own progress.
● Student completes all tasks to the best of their ability and engages in
additional extension tasks to further their learning.
● Student supports other learners.
Good ● Student is engaged in learning.
● Student attempts to be an ambitious, independent learner who sometimes
takes responsibility for their own progress.
● Student shows aspiration necessary to be successful.
● Student completes the tasks to the best of their ability.
Requires ● Student has shown some engagement in learning, meeting basic
Improvement expectations.
● Student has shown limited ambition, when prompted to do so.

the resilience for this to be consistent.
● Student does not complete tasks to the best of their ability.
Causing Concern ● Student has not engaged fully in learning and has failed to meet basic
expectations.
● Student has not yet developed the resilience to take responsibility for their
own learning.
● Student shows little aspiration to succeed.
● Student completes little or no work in lessons, in relation to the work set.

Targets
Your child’s personal targets are generated from the CAT4 assessment that was sat earlier in this academic
year. The CAT4 assessments generate predicted grades for your child for a range of subjects at GCSE level.
These predicted grades are your child’s Year 11 Targets. We use these to generate targets from Year 7 to Year
10. Your child is expected to make 1 grade of progress in each subject in an academic year. With this in mind,
we take the Year 11 Targets and move down by 1 grade each year.

Example: Year 11 Target in Computing is 6

Taking the target grade of 6 in Computing for a child, we move down by 1 grade each year:
• Year 10 Target: 5
• Year 9 Target: 4
• Year 8 Target: 3
• Year 7 Target: 2

Each subject may have a different target depending upon how your child has performed in the CAT4
assessments. These targets are personalised to your child for each subject.

Across an academic year, we use subgrades to set targets for each term starting with ‘c’ in Term 1, ‘b’ in Term
2 and ‘a’ in Term 3. For example, if a child’s target for a subject is Grade 2 for the year then the Term 1 target
will be 2c, the Term 2 target will be 2b and the Term 3 target will be 2a.

What do the number grades mean?

The grades we use are based upon the GCSE Grades 9 to 1 with the addition of ‘WT’.
• 9 - Highest Grade Achievable - Achieved by top 1-2% of students
• 6 - Above Expected Attainment
• 5 - Strong Pass
• 4 - Standard Pass
• 3 - UAE Equivalency Pass
• 1 - Lowest Grade
• WT - Working Towards Grade 1

Flight Path
This is the Secondary School Flight Path. It shows how a student is expected to progress towards their Year 11
Targets.

Year 10 Prediction
Based upon your child’s performance in each subject, teachers have predicted the grade your child will achieve
at the end of this academic year.

• EP: Expected Progress – Meeting the target for this subject.
• WTEP: Working Towards Expected Progress – Not yet meeting the target for this subject.
