Plans to sets clear expectations for children's progress with reading and writing
All primary schools on the Isle of Man have adopted a new way to assess English.
The scheme, which has been piloted over the past 12 months, sets clear expectations for children's progress with reading and writing.
It aims to be rolled out in secondary schools as well by September next year.
Education Minister, Daphne Caine, admits standards previously haven't been where they'd like them to be:

Warning over flare disposal after amenity site fire
Suspended sentence for 56-year-old in cannabis supply case
Owner of a block of flats fined for failing to meet fire safety regulations
Review of taxi fares extended to assess impact of Middle East conflict
