Carbeile Junior School has many systems in place to ensure that all our pupils make good or better progress in Reading.
- All pupils are assessed comprehensively on entry to the school (predominantly start of Y3)
- These assessments are externally moderated.
- Year 3 assessment data for Reading tests is tracked closely by the school Phonics Lead (Miss Hendy) so that expected progress can be checked.
- Pupil Performance meetings held termly between all class teachers and the SLT (Senior Leadership Team)
- Pupils not making progress WILL be flagged up and discussed.
- Barriers to learning are shared with colleagues who can assist with ideas and solutions.
- PIRA tests (published by Rising Stars) are taken termly.
- These tests give standardised scores so that progress can be tracked reliably.
- PIRA tests come alongside MARK, which enables teachers to look at progress indicators and any gaps in learning.
- The English Subject Leader regularly has classroom-release time to investigate data and track progress…
- Updates and summaries are then shared with staff.
- The school SENDCo plays a vital role in tracking SEND children. She collects in PIRA test scores and uses these to assess progress, alongside regular classroom visits and pupil conferencing.
