This CPD session offers an engaging and original approach to introducing or revisiting assessment for learning. Grounded in educational research, this CPD session is interactive, well-structured, and has been successfully tried and tested. The aim of the CPD session is to develop the knowledge, skills, and strategies needed in order to utilise assessment for learning even more effectively in lessons, and it achieves this by embarking upon the following learning journey: 1. Understand what assessment for learning is and why it is effective. 2. Break down the individual components of assessment for learning. 3. Observe and evaluate a model of assessment for learning 4. Collaborate in developing your own assessment for learning strategies. Included in this pack are: Full PowerPoint presentation, videos for analysis, hyperlinks to Youtube videos, resources for CPD activities, instructions and guidance for trainers/ presenters. All images and videos are licensed for commercial use, and are cited on the final slide.

This resource assesses pupils with an EHCP when they join a new school or education establishment. It records the level that a pupil is functioning at and can help a new school understand the support that they need going forwards (at their new school). This assessment can then be re-assessed year on year against the initial baseline to demonstrate progress against the baseline and the students entry into a new education establishment (also attached in this document). Always useful when Ofsetd or the LEA needs evidence of a pupils progress.

The Preview may seem wierd but download format is fine! Resource details what type of tasks count towards each objective for the Edexcel GCSE Specification in Art and Design. Students and teacher can in different pens tick the appropriate box- have they completed no work towards, minimal, secure or in depth amount towards that objective. You can then tally up how many grades you got in each section and therefore clearly see in each AO where students are struggling. You can then convert the grades on to the grid- so majority of minimal amount would be 2/3 grade. Secure- 4/5/6 and in depth 7,8,9 grades. There are then four boxes where student and teacher can write in clearly what tasks need to be complete to improve each assessment objective.

Individual child risk assessment. Used for trips or travelling outside of school for individual children who might need this preparation.

30 mark (35 minute) test on rivers, flooding and the water cycle for Year 7. This was based on the content from the Geog.1 text books; however, it is suitable for any topic on rivers at KS3. Students have to label a diagram of the water cycle, define key terms, draw diagrams and produce longer responses on flood defences. This assessment should be accessible for lower ability students whilst the longer responses will stretch G&T pupils. There is no mark scheme with this assessment; however, it is relatively straight forward to put one together based on the content that has been covered in your class. I am aware that some content may have been missed out due to time restrictions, so this test is easily modified.

I have created a baseline assessment on entry to Reception, because I struggled to find a baseline assessment that matched the new Development Matters document. Therefore, I have used Development Matters, July 2021 to create this document and to look at what we would expect children to be doing when they enter Reception in September, to be 3-4 years secure. I hope this resource helps you too!

This baseline assessment can be used for year 7 at any point during the school year. Could be a useful tool for differentiation at the start of the year, or even as a summative or formative assessment part way through the year. This assessment covers the following areas which are commonly taught within the curriculum in year 7, but could be adapted for a more bespoke assessment: Basic Skills - formal elements; Colour theory - knowledge and key words; Space and shape - problem solving and imagination; African Art - comprehension, colour and pattern; Surrealism - proportion, shape and observation. This paper can be marked by the teacher and used to plan and sequence future lessons on basic skills.
