Key Stage 3:
The results at Key Stage 3 are based on teacher assessments of the National Curriculum level reached by all students at the end of the year 9 in each of the humanities subjects. There are no formal or external tests or SATs.
In the Humanities faculty subjects , our teacher assessments are based on the performance of each student in a range of assessment tasks and the annual school exams or tests held during the key stage.
