  1. Assessment Crown Primary School Tuesday 3rd December, 2013

  2. Purposes of assessment To support learning To give assurance to parents and others about learners’ progress To provide a summary of what learners have achieved, including through qualifications and awards To inform future improvements.

  3. How do you meet the expectations of a level? Pupils will: • have achieved a breadth of learning across the experiences and outcomes for an aspect of the curriculum • have responded to the level of challenge set out in the experiences and outcomes, and are moving forward to more challenging learning in some aspects • be able to apply what they have learned in new and unfamiliar situations.

  4. Ensuring consistency How do we know from year to year that children are making progress? By working together from the guidance provided to plan learning, teaching and assessment By building on existing standards and expectations By drawing on exemplification By engaging with colleagues to share and confirm expectations.

  5. Reporting Parents and learners will receive a range of information both formally and informally. Strengths, progress and achievements Gaps in children’s progress and ways that parents can help Progress in literacy and numeracy as well as performance across the curriculum Teachers will share full and open accounts of each learner’s progress Transition –sum up achievements through profiles/formal reports

  6. Monitoring standards over time Scottish Survey of Literacy and Numeracy Samples learners' achievements to measure standards over time and to monitor national performance in literacy and numeracy at P4, P7 and S2. Assessment for Excellence Assessments – Highland initiative

  8. The 360° Approach

  9. What is a learning record? A learning record is more than putting everything in one jotter. It is a record of a pupil’s learning journey through their school life. Learning records encourage children to link and apply different areas of learning. They contain evidence of learning experiences and also reflections on these learning experiences. In the learning records, pupils read and respond to the feedback and advice given by their teacher. This dialogue helps them to improve and meet their learning targets.
