Universal Progress Interviews
• All pupils undertake a survey exploring how they see their place in their progress
• All pupils complete a prompt sheet prior to the interview
• Teachers use a pupil’s responses as the starting point for discussions
![Page 11: Assessment in Berwick Middle School. David Mulholland 1.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062515/56649f585503460f94c7de65/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Focused Progress Support
• A focus group is identified through:– tracking data and information (including APP)– responses to pupil survey– professional judgement
• Prior to the interview, the pupils discuss their progress with their teachers (using the prompt sheet provided)
• An extended progress interview is conducted
• Following the interview, the pupils draw up their own action plan and discuss it with their Progress Adviser
• A review meeting is scheduled with the pupil
