Key Stage Three The content and methodology followed by our department naturally reflects the demands of the National Curriculum Groupings In Year 7 students are taught in tutor groups for the their first half term.They are then banded in ability groups as are Years 8 and 9. Assessment Within each scheme of work there are approximately two to three formally assessed assignments.These measure students attainment within En1,En2 and En3 These assessments are completed over a number of lessons.The assignments may be marked individually or they may be awarded one overall mark. These, combined with the common assessments , form the basis for a student's level of attainment Common Assessments In addition to the scheme of work assignments, common assessments will be taken by all students to monitor their progress. Each term , every student at Key Stage Three will have a writing and reading test.The format of these assessments are based on the SATS Key Stage 3 Reading and Writing papers . Spellings The teaching of spellings and, indeed, grammar is an integral part of our schemes of work as determined by the National Literacy Strategy. Spellings are taught within our literacy starters as well as being identified and addressed through normal marking procedures. The government intervention strategy is also used to support less able spellers at KS3
