Achieving a level Has achieved a breadth of learning across almost all of the experiences and outcomes for a level, including significant aspects of the curriculum area Has responded consistently well to the level of challenge set out in these experiences and outcomes Has moved forward to more challenging learning in some aspects: and Has applied what he/she has learned in new and unfamiliar contexts
Annotated exemplars - support key messages: virtual child assessment judgements should be informed by a range of evidence across the significant aspects of learning*. individual pieces of work in themselves cannot provide evidence of achievement of a level. moderation of evidence is critical progression across levels should be evident latest and best – sampling……?(How much..? And how well?)
What will your exemplars look like? • you decide for your context • A4 or A3 format. • Level • Title -Reading/Writing/L and T • Significant aspects • context in which the learning took place • learner evidence • Annotations - teachers’ notes/pupil voice (may be captured in the evidence) • learner reflection/conversations • No names

Assessment – Key Messages • Assessment: • Is integral to learning and teaching - involves all stakeholders, most importantly the learner - is ongoing, periodic, at times of transition • Builds capacity in practitioners to make professional judgements underpinned by professional dialogue - assessment requires a variety of approaches generating a body of quality evidence - assessment and moderation are integral to each other • Is holistic and informative - has many purposes, the most important of which is to support the learner journey - goes beyond KU alone to include skills, attributes and capabilities
Assessment • Skills • Profile
Discussion • How well have you developed your strategy for assessment to ensure a coherent approach to learning, teaching and assessment ? • What are the overall strengths of your current assessment practice? • What do you need to further develop ?
