These are set one level above expected progress to ensure all students hit their target by the end of Year 11.  \nEstimated and Current Working Grades  \nEstimated grades are a professional judgement based on assessment information and attitude to learning of what students will achieve by the end of year 11. Estimated grades can go up and down over the two years.  \nCurrent working grades are where students are tracking at this moment in time, this is an upto-date grade.  \nGCSE Grades-Numbers  \nThe Government introduced new courses for Key Stage 4 in most subjects over the last 2 years. They are now awarded in numbers. The system goes from 9 – 1. The conversion from letters to number can be seen below.  \nGCSE Grades-Letters  \nOn the data track for these subjects you will see a letter next to the number. The letter represents the confidence that we have in the student achieving that level.  \nA – Very secure and could possibly move up to the next level B – Secure in achieving this level  \nC – Less secure and may drop to the level below  \nBTEC subjects  \nBTEC subjects are graded Distinction star to Level 1 Pass. A conversion of the BTEC to the GCSE grading system can be seen below. Please note that some BTEC grades sit between two GCSE grades.  \n\n| BTEC Level 2 |  |  | BTEC Level 1 |  |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| BTEC Grade | GCSE Grade Equivalent |  | BTEC Grade | GCSE Grade Equivalent |\n| Distinction* (D*) | 8.5 |  | Distinction (D) | 3 |\n| Distinction (D) | 7 |  | Merit (M) | 2 |\n| Merit (M) | 5.5 |  | Pass (P) | 1.25\u003Cbr>|\n| Pass (P) | 4 |  |  |  |\n\nBTEC Grades-Letters  \nOn the data track for BTEC subjects you will see a number next to the letter.
