How we assess maths Assessment ladders made by the school with statements taken from the National Curriculum. Year 2 also have the End of Key Stage Interim Assessment Framework, issued by the government. Abacus assessments Evidence is gathered from recorded work in books, any written assessments, photos and any written notes of things the children have said to support statements. Assessment for learning – all the time, as we plan and mark Assessment of learning – more formal assessment e.g target sheets, SATs Reigate Parish Church Primary School
