Towards: Working at Greater Depth within the Expected Standard
To move to GDS (Working at Greater Depth within the Expected Standard), the identified EXS blockers need to be secured: ks1-w-exs-01 (Narrative technique), ks1-w-exs-02 (Non-fiction recount), and ks1-w-exs-05 (Grammar — sentence construction). In addition, the contradicting evidence issues for ks1-w-exs-08 (Handwriting — letter formation) and ks1-w-exs-09 (Handwriting — spacing) would need to be resolved.
