Why is this conference relevant?
The removal of National Curriculum Levels has left the gap between P scales and assessment based on age-related expectations wider than ever. It has also given rise to several challenges for those responsible for the progress and attainment of SEND pupils.
- What does a robust assessment model for lower attaining pupils look like?
- How can you benchmark and make like-for-like comparisons when national data is out of date?
- How will you be expected to evidence progress and demonstrate impact at your next inspection?
This conference is an opportunity for you to hear from leading practitioners, including the two Assessment Innovation Fund Winning Special Schools, to enable you to support, assess and evidence the progress of all your students.
Learning outcomes - what can I expect?
- Assessment Models: Leave with 3 different rigorous systems of assessment you can establish in your school to ensure every child is able to show progress
- Inspection: Know how you can evidence impact at your next inspection and clarify how Ofsted will judge your school’s assessment and progress given school-level data
- Formative Assessment in the Classroom: Gain best-practice to ensure day-to-day formative assessment in the classroom is in line with your whole-school framework and effectively supporting student progress
