At Hopescourt School, we prioritise keeping families informed about students' progress at appropriate stages throughout the academic year. Our comprehensive reports provide easily interpretable data for every subject, offering valuable insights into your child's educational journey.
Key Stage 3 Reports:
For Key Stage 3, we employ a 3-point scale for measuring attainment: WT (working towards), EXP (expected), and EXC (exceeding). These three attainment bands—Mastering, Securing, and Progressing—are assigned upon a student's entry into the school. They are informed by a combination of their KS2 SATS score and the overall CAT test score. To illustrate the alignment of these attainment bands with anticipated GCSE outcomes, please refer to the table below.
| Attainment Band | Anticipated GCSE Outcome | Combined KS2 Result |
| Mastering | 7-9 | 111-120 |
| Securing | 5-7 | 100-110 |
| Progressing | 3-5 | 99 and lower |
Key Stage 4 Reports:
During Key Stage 4, attainment (progress/working at grade) grades are established at 0.5-point intervals, encompassing BTEC qualifications. Predictions (working towards) are denoted in whole grades, including BTEC qualifications. Our forecast targets adhere to the Fischer Family Trust forecast targets, typically aligned with the FFT 50/20 parameters. It's worth noting that the Combined Science award will be reported as two grades, without the 0.5-interval distinction, for both attainment (working at) and prediction (working toward).
Key Stage 5 Reports:
At Key Stage 5, attainment (progress/working at grade) grades are set at 0.5-point intervals, covering BTEC qualifications as well. Predictions (working towards) are presented in whole grades, inclusive of BTEC qualifications.
We encourage open and constructive discussions about the reports, and there's an opportunity to delve deeper into your child's progress by reaching out to relevant members of our staff. You don't need to wait until subject consultation evenings to engage in these important conversations. Should you require additional copies of your child's report, please don't hesitate to contact the school office.
