Teachers will be accountable for each child making good or better progress and will be monitored by LT each half term. Through tracking of pupil progress the school will set challenging but achievable targets. A rigorous programme of monitoring the quality of teaching and learning and a process of selfevaluation will continue.

Key Issue 3 & 4) 1.5 Tracking pupil progress will ensure that necessary interventions take place. 1.6 Governors will have good knowledge and understanding of the tracking procedures and will hold the school to account for it s performance. Performance management discussions will take place with all teaching staff in the Autumn Term 2014 and then review discussions throughout the year linked to pay policy and progression. Pupil progress, the setting and monitoring of appropriate and challenging pupil targets will be central to all discussions. Individual teachers will assess pupil progress at the end of each lesson (APP) and adapt future planning accordingly, taking account of any interventions necessary. As a result, interventions and guided groups will be fluid and adapted to needs. Literacy and Numeracy Coordinators and NCo will track and monitor pupil progress at the end of each half term and plan the following terms intervention groups. Monitoring of intervention programmes will take place on a half-termly basis and effectiveness discussed. Pupil progress will be discussed each term by the full governing body.
