Help:Estyn Framework – 2.2.2 Assessment for learning • How well does oral feedback and marking enable pupils
to see how well they are doing and what they need to do to improve?
• Do staff encourage pupils regularly to make a note of feedback?
• How well does feedback develop pupils’ ability to assess their own performance and their peers’ performance; and
• Does assessment information steer future planning?
KS2-3 Assessment Developments: Brief Overview
• National Pilot – 2010-2011 (Summer-Spring)• 4 core subjects and Welsh Second Language • Focus on learner profiles as the next stage in
ensuring consistency in teacher assessments • Moderation of Primary and Secondary catchment
area profiles for end of KS2 and KS3 (Year 6 and 9)
• Focus on levels 4 and 5 (3 and 4 in Welsh Second Language)
Timetable: Pilot
• Regional Meetings – 21ain, 26ain a 27ain o Ebrill;
• Submission of Learner Profiles – October 2010;• External Moderation of Learner Profiles
November 2010;• Need for external moderators, especially
Primary (Team of 5x KS2 and 5xKS3); and• Feedback to clusters following moderation.
Important considerations: Standardisation and Moderation
• Standardisation involves a process of using samples of the work of the same learner or of different learners to enable teachers to reach agreement on levels of attainment by confirming a shared understanding of the characteristics of a level.
• Materials collated for standardisation purposes ... are described as the school, department or cluster standardisation portfolio which is used as a reference source of evidence.
• Moderation at the end of a key stage, where a ‘best fit’* judgement on an individual learner’s level of attainment is made.
• This is exemplified through ‘a range of work of an individual learner, a learner profile ... to assist judgements to be made at the end of a key stage, through moderation’.
Important considerations: Standardisation and Moderation
Defining ‘best fit’:“... to recognise progress within a key stage, best-fit judgements could use the
features of adjacent level descriptions to indicate whether a learner is working at the lower end, securely within, or at the top end of a broad National Curriculum Outcome/Level. Typically, a learner at the lower end of an Outcome/Level shows mainly characteristics of that Outcome/Level across a range of work, but may still have some characteristics of the previous Outcome/Level in some aspects of the work. A learner securely within the Outcome/Level demonstrates the characteristics of that Outcome/Level across a range of work. A learner at the top end of an Outcome/Level demonstrates clearly characteristics of that Outcome/Level across a range of work with some examples of characteristics of the next Outcome/Level. Special schools and mainstream schools can use such best-fit judgements to share information about individual learners, within and across schools.At the end of a key stage, learners’ attainment must be reported in terms of the most appropriate whole Outcome/Level. All attainment at the lower end, securely within or at the top of an Outcome/Level should be recorded as being at that level.
[Ref. ‘Making the most of Assessment’, page 8]
The role of cluster contacts:
• to receive information from WJEC ;• to co-ordinate with the other cluster contact;• to feedback WJEC correspondence/
information meeting materials to the other schools in the cluster; and
• to send the cluster’s sample evidence to WJEC when requested.
17
Process
All cluster schools should play an active part in deciding on best-fit by:
• identifying learner profiles for the cluster group to use as a source of evidence.
• attending cluster group meetings to moderate selected learner profiles
• agreeing the moderated outcomes and adopting the cluster’s moderated learner profiles as benchmarks within their individual schools.
• applying these benchmarks to future teacher assessment and in particular to end of KS2/3 teacher assessment.
