Reporting

Each student receives a written report four times a year: November, January, April and July.

Each report includes:

Attendance and punctuality
  • Attendance so far this year
  • Number of times the student has arrived late to school
Subject information

For each subject, the report shows:

  • Set – In Year 7, most subjects are not set. As students progress into Year 8 and beyond, they will be placed into sets for most subjects.
  • Target GCSE grade – This is an ambitious grade based on Year 6 SATs, Cognitive Ability Tests, Wandsworth tests and teachers’ professional judgement. Reaching this target shows strong performance.
  • Predicted grade – The grade the teacher believes the student is likely to achieve by the end of Year 11, based on classwork, homework and test results.
  • Most recent test result – The student’s score in the latest test.
  • Average test result – The class average, shown for comparison.
  • Position in class – How the student performed in the test compared with others in the class. Students consistently at the top or bottom may move up or down sets.
  • Effort grade – A score from 1 to 4 that reflects effort across the year:
    • 1 = Excellent
    • 2 = Good
    • 3 = Poor
    • 4 = Serious concern
How Parents and Carers Can Use Reports to Support Progress
  • Talk through the report calmly and positively, praising successes and discussing any concerns without blame.
  • Focus on effort as well as grades. Improving effort often leads to better results over time.
  • Set clear, achievable goals together, such as improving an effort grade in a particular subject or preparing better for tests.
  • Agree practical steps, for example:
    • Completing homework on time
    • Revising little and often
    • Organising equipment the night before
    • Staying focused in lessons
  • Track progress over time by keeping all reports in one folder and comparing them across the year.
  • Contact teachers if needed, especially if effort grades are low or predicted grades drop, to ask how best to support learning at home.

Used regularly, school reports can be a powerful tool to help students reflect, improve, and build good learning habits
