Students are placed in the year group which corresponds to their age, unless otherwise requested by a parent or guardian (and approved by the school). We track students progress according to expectations for their age group.

Learners will sit a baseline assessment that currently takes place twice a year (October and March). This helps teachers with grade predictions and progress tracking. Students also take short, informal assessments such as quizzes each week. At the end of each topic, teachers set a longer assessment (such as a written assignment) to test understanding in-depth. This programme of assessment is designed to track students’ progress efficiently and make sure learners are sufficiently supported or challenged without causing academic stress.

We welcome the submission of reports or scores from previous schools. These can be saved on our system and communicated with staff.

If your child suffers from anxiety or another similar condition, you can request a microphone exemption. This allows your child to attend their live lessons without the need to participate through audio, taking pressure off of students who feel nervous or anxious about speaking aloud.

Once your child feels more comfortable and confident at King’s InterHigh, they may wish to begin participating in classes. In these cases, parents are free to contact us to end the microphone exemption.

Our digital classroom environment at King’s InterHigh is designed to avoid behavioural issues, disruptions, and distractions. If needed, teachers can restrict a student’s access to chat or microphone communication until the end of the lesson. Teachers can also separate students into breakout rooms so they can talk through behaviour and remedy the situation after class ends.

All students are informed of the rules and controls in place. In turn, this creates a positive learning atmosphere for all students and helps ease worries for learners who have been bullied in the past.
