Assessment
At St Alban’s, assessment is a vital part of our approach to teaching and learning. It helps us understand what children know, what they need to learn next, and how we can best support their progress. Our assessment practices ensure that every child receives the right level of challenge and support, allowing them to flourish academically and personally.
We use a combination of statutory assessments (required by the government), other summative assessment and ongoing teacher assessments (otherwise known as formative assessment) to track progress throughout a child’s journey in primary school. These assessments provide valuable insights into children’s learning and help us work in partnership with parents to celebrate achievements and address any areas for development.
