Following figures work fine for me on every approach (A320 CFM engines):

Pitch (Conf FULL): 2.5-3°, Power GW-3% (so in your case with a GW of 60 it would be ~ 57%).

Just looked up the Pitch/Powersettings we tested and flew during my typerating to learn how the A320 behaves:

Level Flight (GW 59.0t):

340kt; 0-1°; GW+14%
250kt; ~3°; GW+3%
Green Dot; ~5°; GW%
S-Speed (Conf 1); ~7.5°; GW+3%
F-Speed (Conf 2); ~7.5°; GW+3%

On Glide Slope:

160kt (Conf 2); ~2.5°; 40%
Final Speed (Conf 3); ~4-5°; GW-5%
Final Speed Conf FULL); ~2.5-3°; GW-3%

Milage for Decelaration

340-250kt; ~7NM
250-Green Dot; ~4NM
Green Dot- S-Speed; ~1-1.5NM

Always keep in mind, these are ball park figures. Although they usually work out fine, you have to adjust to the situation (like wind).

Hope this helps.
Good luck,
