3. Skills pathways

Life After Levels

Based on national research and good practice in other academies and schools, we have a ‘Pathway’ system in Year 7 and 8.

In Year 8 the students are using the familiar ‘metal’ pathways of Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum in order to assess progress.

In Year 7 we are utilising the terminology carried through from primary school of WTS/EXS/GDS.

Teachers will engage with the system in lessons, so pupils will know how they can make progress effectively. Parents will receive ‘Pathway’ information twice a year for subjects followed in Year 7 and 8 alongside Attitude to Learning grades.

Year 8 flight path

	GCSE grades
Bronze	1-3
Silver	4-5
Gold	6-7
platinum	8-9

Year 7 flight path

KS2	KS3	KS4
WTS	WTS	1-2
EXS	EXS(F)	3-4
	EXS(E)	5-6
GDS	GDS	7-9

WTS: Working towards standard

ES : Expected standard

GDS : Greater Depth Standard .

At KS3, EXS(F) represents an understanding of the foundational knowledge need to access approximate GCSE grades 3-4 EXS(E) represents an established and secure understanding of the knowledge needed to access approximate GCSE in the boundaries of level 5 (ES2 higher) as a transition towards secondary benchmarks
