- The student’s mock examination grade where applicable.
- The student’s MYP grade where applicable
- The student’s commitment to learning grade
Students and their families will be provided with the following contextual information:
Commitment to Learning grade
As calculated using the academy’s Commitment to Learning descriptors. The class teacher provides a quantitative judgement on the students commitment to learning using a four pointed scale. This is routed in the MYP learner profile as well as their application and commitment to learning in all aspects of the learning.
Commitment to Learning (AtL) Descriptors
4: Exceptional – work consistently exceeds expectations.
Students consistently demonstrate hard work, enthusiasm and engagement in all lessons. They work to the best of their ability and meet all deadlines. IB traits in the subject area are consistently exhibited.
3: Advanced – work consistently meets and sometimes exceeds expectations.
Students demonstrate a commitment and willingness to learn in all lessons. Their work and participation is of a high standard. Students meet their deadlines and many IB traits in the subject area are exhibited.
2: Secure – work generally meets expectations but improvement is required.
Students engage in most lessons but may not work to the best of their ability. Their work and participation is of a good standard overall. However, students may require encouragement to complete tasks and may not always engage adequately with their learning. Students meet deadlines but this may be inconsistent, with some of the IB traits in the subject area being exhibited.
1: Emerging – work is unsatisfactory and action is required.
Students persistently fail to meet expectations in lessons and do not complete work to the best of their ability. Deadlines are not met and IB traits are not exhibited. A meeting with the subject teacher will be required.
X: Unable to grade currently due to absence or recent arrival at the academy.
