Decisions would be made based on both formal and informal methods including:
- Adult observations over a period of time (by for example, the class teacher, learning mentors, teaching assistants, midday supervisors, Head of school and Senco)
- Monitoring progress, attainment and attendance data (collected and analysed every term)
- Pupil discussions – do they find something challenging? (this could be academic; communication; social, emotional or behavioral, physical)
- Parent discussions (as detailed in the section above)
