(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order amends the Education (National Curriculum) (Key Stage 3 Assessment Arrangements) (Wales) Order 1997 in the light of the National Curriculum changes which came into effect in August 2000. Before those changes, there was no provision for measuring, by means of a formal scale, pupils' levels of attainment in art, music and physical education at key stage 3. Instead, for the purpose of measuring pupils' achievements at key stage 3, the National Curriculum contained what were termed “End of key stage descriptions” for each attainment target. Under the new National Curriculum, provision is now made for measuring pupils levels of attainment in those subjects by means of a scale. The amendments which this Order makes to the 1997 Order reflect those changes.
