What are the Assessment requirements for ICT at Key stages 1 and 2?
There is no statutory obligation for teachers to record and report pupils attainment in the form of levels at the end of key stages 1 and 2, although many schools do as effective practice, demonstrating progression and supporting transition. Teachers will use their professional judgement to determine the most effective method of gathering evidence of pupils’ progress and the most appropriate way of reporting to parents. Progress in ICT must be reported as a separate subject, not only as a statement within other subject reports. Q: What is the expected level of attainment at the end of each of key stages 1 and 2? A: At the end of key stage 1, the expected level for the majority of pupils is level 2. At the end of key stage 2, the expected level for the majority of pupils is level 4. Q: What are the statutory requirements for teaching ICT at key stage 3? A: Schools must cover the programme of study for the key stage and report to parents on pupils’ progress once a year.
