To support pupils in catching up on lost learning we must first concern ourselves with the vital task of identifying exactly what gaps exist and for whom.

This unit will introduce a range of practical assessment approaches for doing exactly that while also actively engaging the pupils themselves in the assessment process.

Aims and outcomes

  • Explore the key role of formative assessment in supporting pupil progress.
  • Evaluate the role of ‘low-stakes’ assessment.
  • Consider the impact of memory on learning.
  • Introduce ideas for actively involving pupils in the assessment process.
