PUPIL PROGRESS Progress and AchievementAt Forest Way School all of our pupils and young people are treated as individuals hence we use a wide range of indicators to capture their individual progress and achievements. This is summarised for each pupil for their individual Annual Review meeting. All of this information is used to evaluate progress towards the learner’s current Education and Health Care Outcomes. This then feeds into subsequent setting of new targets or outcomes.The information below provides a summary of some of the wider indicators used in the different key stages to show progress and achievements. There is a full report available on request from school.EYFS EYFS pupils were assessed on entry in September 2022 and again in June 2023 using the Development Matters Early Learning Goals EYFS tracking document..On entry all 20 pupils were assessed to be working at Birth to 3yrs in all 17 areas.The progress and attainment demonstrated above does not fully reflect the progress pupils made. This is complimented by the evidence recorded in their personal Learning Journeys, IEP targets and Tapestry, which show more detailed personal progress for each pupil.The areas where the highest number of pupils made progress using the EYFS Assessment were: Listening/Attention & Understanding, speaking, number, the natural world and being imaginative and expressive.3 pupils have achieved Reception stage in their assessment for gross motor skills and also fine motor skills.The progress and attainment demonstrated above represent excellent progress for our EYFS pupils, this evidence is complimented by the evidence recorded in the pupil’s personal Learning Journeys and Tapestry, which show more detailed personal progress for each pupil.Within the Key Stages the pupils achieved the following progress as evidenced using our internal small steps assessments system throughout the academic year.Key Stage 1100% of pupils made progress in speaking and listening, reading, maths and science.93% of pupils made progress in writing.Key Stage 2 94% of pupils made progress in speaking.96% of pupils made progress in listening.93% of pupils made progress in reading.88% of pupils made progress in maths.87% of pupils made progress in writing.92% of pupils made progress in science.The DenThe Den was established in September 2020 with a gradual increase of pupils throughout the year. By September 2021, both classes had reached full capacity with twelve pupils in total. The pupils all access the full range of subjects within the National Curriculum, with holistic subjects built into the timetable including Music Therapy, Music Communication and Interaction and Forest Schools. The pupils also take part in focused communication activities and receive a high level of support with regards to their behaviour and emotional regulation. The pupils are individually assessed at the beginning of the school year to determine the level at which they access the National Curriculum. Their individual pupil progress is summarised within their education reports which is presented at their annual review meetings. They are also assessed against National Curriculum outcomes three times a year at the end of each term. These are currently being adapted to show small step progress more effectively. Summative teacher assessment is also completed throughout the year which informs planning and teaching. During the summer term 2023, two Year 2 pupils were assessed in phonics through the Phonics Screening Test, one of the pupils passed the assessment. Also, during summer term 2023, a Year 6 pupil sat SATS exams, the scaled pass mark was 100 – English Punctuation Spelling and Grammar (scaled score 92), English Reading (scaled score 99) and Mathematics (scaled score 91). He had a reader for support and completed his SATS in strict exam conditions. This is the second time a pupil at Forest Way has sat the Y6 SATS exams. This pupil has gained a place at Maplewell to begin his secondary education in September 2023. We also had a Year 4 student sit the Multiplication Check and achieved 21 out of 25. Key Stage 3 98% of pupils made progress in reading.96% of pupils made progress in speaking and listening.94% of pupils made progress in writing and maths.98% of pupils made progress in science.Key Stage 4100% of pupils made progress in speaking, reading and maths.96% of pupils made progress in listening.91% of pupils made progress in writing.97% of pupils made progress in science.Post 1698% of pupils made progress in reading.94% of pupils made progress in speaking and maths.96% of pupils made progress in listening.62% of pupils made progress in writing. Pupils have made significant progress and achievements in Entry Level maths – it is to be noted that this does not include all of Post 16. 11 students were entered for an English qualification at Entry Level 1 (reading, writing and speaking & listening) and all achieved this. This represented a significant achievement for the young people in taking an exam under strict conditions.Small steps assessment is being tweaked this term to ensure that it fully reflects the various pathways and curriculums taught throughout the whole of post 16. This may account for some discrepancies on Post 16 data. The Den - Transition to Secondary School
