Key Stage 3 Indicative Competencies

In 2013, the DfE confirmed that National Curriculum (NC) levels would be removed. Schools were subsequently given the challenge/autonomy to implement their own assessment arrangements.

In 2014, the DfE introduced a phased transition from alphabetical (A*-G) to numerical (9-1) grades at Key Stage 4 (KS4). The Academy therefore developed a mirrored grading system at Key Stage 3 (KS3) within a set of subject-specific ‘indicative competencies’.
