Individual Targets
At the Old Vicarage School we recognise that each child is unique. We acknowledge that they will all have strengths and, at times, need support as part of their academic enrichment and enhancement. We have therefore created a system of individual weekly targets.
Each class teacher, with their awareness of your child’s abilities and areas requiring support, will create a tailored schedule of work each week. During the week our teachers will assess attainment in each of the subject areas set as they mark each piece of work and it is this that will inform their decisions for the following week’s target.
They may choose to reinforce, revisit or enrich particular subject areas depending on your child’s progress. They may also feel that your child has grasped a particular concept and can move on.
Our target system will also empower your child allowing them, with guidance and encouragement, to begin to plan when they will complete their work each week. We feel this is a vital skill as they move onto secondary education. Our target system is, we feel, almost unique in UK education and whilst other schools do set targets, rarely is such depth of planning achieved.
