Department meeting (Mon 6th December) Notes

KS4 Data needed urgently.. Deadline will be Friday 10th of December. I then need to sort out groups, liaise with SLT (may take some time) and run the program. (Ideally this is via email. Thanks to Alistair and Rashida so far)

KS4 CAP papers > Please DO NOT take away the hard copies. The next person will then not have a test.

Exams

January Yr 10 211 only, Yr 11 215 (as well as triple science etc)
Summer Yr 10 212 and 214, Yr 11 all not done (See rotations)
Grade boundaries in KS4
Based on an actual exam (out of 42) from exam board
Work out percentages
Then work out marks for your test. Example here is for C4
This is not perfect but a reasonable way.

KS4 Rotations


This means that next academic year this group will have to do
  • Ideas (core)
  • B3,C3,P3 exam
  • B5,C5,P5 exam
