Assessment without levels
Alongside the introduction of a new national curriculum, the government has abolished attainment levels as the main assessment measure in primary schools. Schools have been encouraged to be creative in devising their own assessment procedures.
St Thomas’ has adopted a new system based on assessment steps, along with other schools in Canterbury. There are a total of 21 steps that pupils progress through from Class 1 all the way up to Class 6.
