1 Toolkit for setting targets for pupils working below national expectations 2011 version

2 Rough Guide to end of Key Stage Targets for pupils working below national expectations It is good practice to set end of Key Stage targets for all learners. All teachers and support staff can then be enabled to understand their contribution to achieving these targets. End of Key Stage targets can then be translated into end of year targets necessary to achieve the final target. One approach is to use three levels of targets, a Must (bottom line) target, a Should (realistic but aspirational) target and a Could (amazingly aspirational) target. For some learners with SEN/LDD working at lower P levels, lateral progress within a P level might also be included at school level target setting. Some schools might find two levels of target setting sufficient. The following tables have been constructed using data from the 2011 Transition Matrices (available in the Library section of RAISEonline: and Progression Guidance 2009 data and give a rough guide to what those targets might be using the median as a MUST target and the 75 th as a SHOULD target. However, it is not intended that this should be used in a prescriptive way to set targets. This is a starting point for discussion only and school leaders and teachers need to apply knowledge about individual learners and their professional judgement to the process. *The data in this booklet has been updated using 2011 data available. Where this data is not available, this is indicated by an asterisk. The 2011 transition matrices for P(i) and P3(i) and P3(ii) show an unrealistic number of pupils converting to national curriculum levels, suggesting human error in inputting data, possibly at school level. In calculating targets at P1(i), P1(ii) data has been used and when calculating targets at P3(i) and P3(ii), data beyond L1 has been disregarded. Transition Matrices do not contain KS2-3 conversion data. Targets for KS3 in this document continue to be based on Progression Materials. Jackie Hibbert March 2012
