Focus<\/span><\/h3>\n

We focus on finding out and reporting on the progress our pupils are making so that they can move forward with their learning.<\/p>\n

Assessment techniques<\/span><\/h3>\n

At Cheddar Grove Primary School we use a range of techniques to assess the progress the children are making. We believe that the process is most effective when the children are engaged and involved in assessing their progress and thinking about how they can improve their work. This formative assessment helps us all understand what steps are needed to move the children forward and takes place on a day-today, week-by-week process.<\/p>\n

You may see examples of formative assessment in action when teachers give feedback to children – often verbally in class (or you see comments on how children could improve their work in their books); when children have identified what they have done well\/need help with or how they feel about their work. These are usually linked with the focus for a lesson (or a series of lessons) and activities like quizzes can help remind children of what they have learnt and help them remember it better.<\/p>\n

Of course there are also times we need to carry out summative assessments, to make sure that individuals and groups of children are making progress and improving in their learning. This can be done through the use of tests, ticks, marks and observations (particularly with our younger children or with subjects such as Science). They help us identify areas of learning that the school is doing well at and areas which have room for improvement. They also help us identify groups which need different kinds of support.<\/p>\n
