Praising Stars

We use our Praising Stars© system to inform you about your progress.

Each year you will receive six Praising Stars reports.

This frequency of reporting enables us to improve the quality and impact of our intervention with you.

Target Setting - Overview for Families

• When you join Outwood, you are given target grades for each subject you study.

• These targets are based on the information we receive about your performance from your Primary School.

• The targets we use are very ambitious because as a trust, Outwood performs significantly above national average and also reflects how the top performing students achieve nationally from this starting point. We are ambitious for you!
