Ten years ago Ofsted said a school had to show progress. National Curriculum levels made it a straightforward process. Now Ofsted no longer requests it and the pandemic means national baselines are disappearing.
So what to do? Here are my top 3 ways to show progress currently in a helpful and fair way:
Continue with mini low impact assessments to inform your overall age-related attainment.
Make it age-related attainment e.g. Pupil is Working Towards, Working At or Working Beyond at the end of the year or working at grade 3, 5, 7 standard.
Benchmark it contextually to national outcomes (2019).
