Assessing Pupils Progress
From Framework:
The Secondary Strategy promotes these features of assessment:
- Pupils understand and take part in the assessment of their work and progress;
- Teachers and pupils jointly assess pupils’ strengths and difficulties in their learning, where they have reached, what they need to aim for next and how to take the next steps;
- Assessments include informal observations, oral questioning and occasional tests or special activities designed to judge progress
- Teachers make use of the assessments and information passed on by previous teachers, particularly when pupils transfer from another school, so that work is planned to build on what pupils have already achieved;
- Recording systems give teachers the information that they need to plan and report successfully, but are not too time-consuming to maintain.
The core assessment course took place. The Key Messages can be downloaded below. Additional information from the tutor notes is also available to download, as well as the Year 9 Booster leaflet.
