The Assessment Puzzle Co-ordinating Assessment across the Curriculum

Description

Assessment plays a key role in how teachers teach and how children learn. There are different types of assessment appropriate to different phases and stages of development. The best forms of assessment will combine data analysis with ways of getting to know pupils and understand their educational needs more fully - but who has an overview of what is happening in your school? This course explores the role of the assessment coordinator and the senior leadership team.
