Assessment

A variety of assessment methods are used to measure progress and celebrate children's achievements in their learning. These include Assessment for Learning (AfL) techniques which are used daily by class teachers to ensure that teaching meets the needs of each child, and that children themselves know how to improve and extend their learning. Questions, marking, feedback, discussion and observations are an invaluable part of this process, as is discussion amongst staff themselves.

In addition children take part in series of more formal tests which provide an opportunity to demonstrate knowledge and skills mastered. Some of these are statutory.
