Setting :
Setting :
All KS3 classes cover the same schemes of work and use the same tests to allow for movement between groups, if needed. The main difference between sets is the pace of work and types of extensions available. There are three types of groups: Extended Plus, Extended and Core
In Extended Plus sets, students cover the same topics but use more challenging questions or competition materials to build a real fluency in a given area. They also progress at a faster rate through core topics.
In Core sets the pace of lessons is more suited to students’ needs. More time is spent consolidating core skills but still appropriate extension is available and built into lessons.
Challenge and Potential :
