Overview of our process for Student Achievement Targets
What is a Student Achievement Target

A student achievement target is a goal set for a particular group of children each year. It could be a reading,
writing or numeracy goal. The Ministry of Education requires all schools to send at least one student achievement
target to them by 31 March each year.
Student Achievement Targets - Our Process

● 2023 end of year school-wide assessment data is analysed by the Lead Team, as well as at team level for
reading, writing and mathematics. All teachers are involved in this process.
● Each team selects at least 1 target for 2024. Target groups can be for remedial (students who are working
below the expected level) or for extension.
● Teams led by their Team Leader plan interventions to assist students in reaching the set target by the end of
the year. These are written up as action plans (Analysis of Variance)
● Interim Reports take place mid-year. During the term Team Leaders meet with their teachers and reflect on
how their target students are going. What does the assessment say? Are our students on track to meet the
targets by the end of the year? What is working? Going well? What needs to change? Is more intervention
needed? Discussions also occur on the progress of the target groups in Lead Meetings.
● At the end of the year assessment data for each target group is analysed and teams reflect on whether or
not the interventions have worked. Have the children achieved the targets? What’s made a difference?
Where to next? Analysis of Variance, i.e., action plans are completed for all targets by the Team Leaders
with support from Cathie and Tracey.
● 2024 end of year school-wide student achievement data is analysed and target groups selected for 2025.

met the targets or not and what interventions made a difference.
