Assessment At Key Stage 3, there will be a requirement for an

end of key stage assessment in Citizenship. The first assessment will be made for those pupils in year 9 in 2004 (end of term 5)

Year 9 teachers to collect work, assess and save work as evidence (PowerPoint, report, worksheet + images, spreadsheet analysis, summary, creating new information, manipulating images).

The Importance of Citizenship helps them to become informed, thoughtful and responsible citizens

who are aware of their duties and rights.

promotes spiritual, moral, social and cultural development, making them more self-confident and responsible both in and beyond the classroom.

encourages pupils to play a helpful part in the life of their schools, neighbourhoods, communities and the wider world.

teaches them about our economy and democratic institutions and values; encourages respect for different national, religious and ethnic identities; and develops pupils’ ability to reflect on issues and take part in discussions.

CITIZENSHIP ATTAINMENT TARGETS End of key stage descriptions The expectation at the end of key stage 3

matches the level of demand in other subjects and is broadly equivalent to levels 5/6.

Assessment How often? Evidence? Grades/Mark/Level/Percentage?

ICT attainment target Level 5 Pupils select the information they need for different purposes, check its

accuracy and organise it in a form suitable for processing.

They use ICT to structure, refine and present information in different forms and styles for specific purposes and audiences.

They exchange information and ideas with others in a variety of ways, including using email. They create sequences of instructions to control events, and understand the need to be precise when framing and sequencing instructions. They understand how ICT devices with sensors can be used to monitor and measure external events. They explore the effects of changing the variables in an ICT based model. They discuss their knowledge and experience of using ICT and their observations of its use outside school. They assess the use of ICT in their work and are able to reflect critically in order to make improvements in subsequent work.

ICT Level 6 Pupils develop and refine their work to enhance its quality,

using information from a range of sources. Where necessary, they use complex lines of enquiry to test hypotheses. They present their ideas in a variety of ways and show a clear sense of audience. They develop, try out and refine sequences of instructions to monitor, measure and control events, and show efficiency in framing these instructions. They use ICTbased models to make predictions and vary the rules within the models. They assess the validity of these models by comparing their behaviour with information from other sources. They discuss the impact of ICT on society.
