PUPIL ASSESSMENT LEVELS

NATIONAL CURRICULUM DESCRIPTORS Level 3
Pupils select and use skills, actions and ideas appropriately, applying them with coordination and control. They show that they understand tactics and composition by starting to vary how they respond. They can
see how their work is similar to and different from others' work, and use this understanding to improve their own performance. They give reasons why warming up before an activity is important, and why
physical activity is good for their health.
STUDENT FRIENDLY DESCRIPTORS
• You can play a rally but most shots are played on the forehand side and above the head.
• Most of your rallies end in a mistake rather than winning a shot.
• During a game you often become confused about positioning on court especially in doubles, and court markings sometimes confuse you.
• You can give reasons why a warm up is important before you play badminton.
NATIONAL CURRICULUM DESCRIPTORS Level 4
Pupils link skills, techniques and ideas and apply them accurately and appropriately. When performing, they show precision, control and fluency. They show that they understand tactics and composition. They
compare and comment on skills, techniques and ideas used in their own and others’ work, and use this understanding to improve their performance. They explain and apply basic safety principles when preparing
for exercise. They describe how exercise affects their bodies, and why regular, safe activity is good for their health and wellbeing. They work with others to plan and lead simple practices and activities for
themselves and others.
STUDENT FRIENDLY DESCRIPTORS
• You can play a rally but rarely vary the angle or distance of your shots and the rally often ends in a mistake being made.
• You understanding where your position should be at the serve, but during the game you often become confused about your positioning.
• You can score a game but sometimes get confused about court markings.
• You can describe what the effects of playing badminton can have on your body.
NATIONAL CURRICULUM DESCRIPTORS Level 5
Pupils select and combine skills, techniques and ideas and apply them accurately and appropriately in different physical activities, When performing in different physical activities, they consistently show
precision, control and fluency. They show that they can draw on what they know about strategy, tactics and composition to produce effective outcomes. They modify and refine skills and techniques to improve
their performance and adapt their actions in response to changing circumstances. They analyse and comment on skills, techniques and ideas and how these are applied in their own and others’ work. They explain
how the body reacts during different types of activity, and why physical activity is an essential component of a healthy lifestyle. They plan, organise and lead practices and activities safely, helping others’ to
improve their performance
STUDENT FRIENDLY DESCRIPTORS
• You can sometimes vary the angle and distance of your shots in a rally but most rallies still end in a mistake.
• You have started to select shots that put your opponent under pressure.
• You can comment on the strengths and weaknesses of another player’s.
• You can perform a badminton specific warm up and cool down.
