- Assessment Development Matters framework helps adults to
understand and support each childs development pathway. Pupil
progress is measured in age-appropriate expectations. Within the
age appropriate bands, we use the terms emerging, developing and
secure to help us make an accurate judgement about the development
of each child.

pupils should be at 40-60e across all areas of learning. By the end
of Autumn term- 40-60d By the end of Spring term- 40-60s By the end
of Summer term, most pupils should have achieved the early learning
goal across all areas.
