KS4 Target Setting for 2024

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, students in KS4 during the academic years 2024/25 and 2025/26 will not have KS2 SAT scores.

Read this article to find a range of methods used by colleagues to determine a prior attainment baseline and discover which options work best with Alps Connect.
