QED = Quality Efficiency Demonstrable (my own term!). This was a presentation I used to encourage staff to consider the 3 key issues when designing assessment strategies for students. Basically - all resources and strategies should always ensure quality feedback to the learners. All must ensure efficiency and whenever possible reduce current work load rather than add to it. Finally, as monitoring is always an aspect of our role as teachers, the resources and strategies should provide demonstrable evidence of quality feedback to a third party, be that Middle leaders, SLT or OFSTED. If you download and want further information then please contact me.

Best printed 4 per page of A4. Useful for student self assessment and also provide quick feedback for the teacher. Great for evidence for work scrutinies / lesson observations. This is based around the SOLO taxonomy system and is designed to support student’s learning through that organisational structure. I have found having a selection of various exit passes preprinted means I always have the right one at the right time!

Contains all the key words and definitions for the whole AQA KS4 Biology course. Includes those particularly for separate science (identified). Best used in conjunction with GCSE Biology AQA - complete glossary. Also supported Quick quiz sheets and definition sheets. All words are numbered on both the Quiz quiz trade cards and the glossaries themselves. Glossary also contains suggested SOLO linked revision strategies. Quick quiz sheet also incudes marking system so students can analyse their results to a greater depth. Students have found this resource and the others suggested invaluable in supporting their long term retention of key information. Great use as a starter activity - simply provide each student with a card on entry to the class and then get them to pair up, quiz each other, swap cards and then move to another partner. Can also be used mid way through a lesson as a break activity. Alternatively students can use the cards to quiz each other in groups of four or place cards down on the table and only turn over if they can either recall the definition or the word corresponding to the information on the reverse.

These are best printed 4 to a page and back to back. You then get 2 sided A6 size sheets with teacher feedback on one side and student response (MRI=my response is) on the other side. I use these when student's work needs assessing but it would be difficult to write comments directly onto their work, e.g emailed presentations, models, verbal presentations or hard copies that would be spoiled with comments being written on them. If printed correctly then they can be stuck into students books or files and can flip up to reveal student's responses. As usual please give me any feedback, suggested improvements or just simply how you have used these.

This is the improved version of the BAA sheets (Book analysis and assessment). These are best printed 4 per page so each resource is then a half page of A4. These can easily be adapted to allow the students themselves to self assess their own work. Generally these are done once per half term - any more than that would be marking madness! As usual any feedback would be welcome along with what use you have been able to make of them.

This is an alternative to an enable table. These are resources that I use within my classroom. My First aid cupboard is where I store resources such as text books etc. The first aid badges (which I laminate and have in lanyards) are used with students who complete their work and then support others in the class. The certificates are used to encourage the First aiders to reflect on their learning (and recognise their great efforts). As usual feedback is welcome.
