My DS (Yr 8) has been given his asssessment with targets for the end of KS3. It shows what his KS3 Target is & what he is on target to get, as well as a grade for attitude to learning.
In a couple of subjects in Y7 his target was 6 & he was on target to get 6. This year he is on target to get 4. Is a drop from 6 to 4 something we should be very concerned about or is it as my son says "that he does not get on with the teacher" and that it will probably go up agsin next year if he has a different teacher. It is the same teacher for both subjects (Art & Textiles). His attitude to learning has also dropped from 6 to 4.
Is it worth talking to the school about or do the target grades not really mean much anyway.
