KS3 Writing Assessment Feedback sheet with DIRT Task:
2 double-sided sheets which includes levels 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7.
Uses the Welsh National Curriculum KS3 level descriptors but can be edited if necessary.
I use this by highlighting what descriptors my students have achieved so that they can see how they achieved the level they did. I then add a comment about their work. During a DIRT lesson, students will then choose one of the descriptors which hasn’t been highlighted by a teacher and set that as a target for the next assessment. On the other side is a coded task designed to improve that target which students will then complete (again, editable). The next time students will complete an assessment, they will write this target at the top of their new feedback sheet.

I used the RAG with my students following their mock exam. The resource is editable so you can change the criteria of the colours depending on whether or not you are focussing on mock results.
This contains the marks for Edexcel Language paper 1 and 2 but can be edited to fit other exam boards.
To be glued in underneath class work or handed to teacher as an exit pass! Students should tick or colour in the barometer and leave a comment about their choice.
E.g. “I understood all of today’s learning”
