More Able Students at Lutterworth College

A student is categorised as being ‘more able’ if their prior attainment indicates that they can achieve the highest grades. This is shown by their prior attainment profile and current target grades.

In addition, students may display a ‘talent’ within a subject area. For some students this may be in several subjects.
