Making Good Progress in Key Stage 2
Dear Colleague,
We all want to remove the barriers which prevent any individual child from reaching their full potential and to encourage all children to achieve as much as they can. Over the last year we have been investigating the characteristics of those children in Key Stage 2 who started the key stage at Level 2 or Level 3 and were at risk of not making two level of progress by the end of the key stage.
Over the course of the investigations hundreds of teachers and children were interviewed. What
became clear is that many of these children display similar behaviours and attitudes to learning and that there are a number of practical things that teachers can do to help.
The leaflets summarise the finding of our investigations and identifies some actions that can be taken to remove the barriers to progress. I encourage you to consider the findings of our work in the context of your own school and the children you teach to see if the suggested actions are relevant to your situation.
These resources are designed to help you personalise your classroom teaching to the needs of specific groups of children who are not progressing as they should in Key Stage 2 so that no child gets left behind.
