‘Life after Levels’ Assessment Information Session for Parents October 2015 Harrison Primary School

Aims for the session…  Share the national context for changes to assessment.  Give an introduction the new assessment framework in line with the new curriculum  Help parents understand how their children are assessed in school and why.  Help parents understand what the results mean for their child.  Share some of the key curriculum changes in Literacy and Mathematics in the new National Curriculum.

Context and background  New National Curriculum – implemented in September 2014 for Year 1, 3, 4 and 5. Year 2 & 6 retained the old curriculum until July 2015  Increased challenge  From September 2015, National Curriculum level descriptors no longer in use as they do not relate to the new National Curriculum expectations.  Expectation that all pupils will be working at age related expectations for their year group for reading, writing and maths.  Now ‘Keep up’ not ‘Catch up.’

How does this affect children that need extra support or extra challenge?  Provide a range of opportunities  Provide a range of resources  Teach through a different context or stimulus  Give children the opportunity to apply their skills and knowledge in a range of different ways and contexts

Types of assessment  Diagnostic  Observational  Formative (Day to day assessment, Learning intention and success criteria, Pupil Learning Review Meetings)  Summative (KS1 SATs/KS2 SATs, Annual reports to parents)

Old Curriculum Expectations for assessment End of KS1 (Y2) – L2b End of KS2 (Y6) – L4

New Curriculum Expectations for assessment KS1

New Curriculum Expectations for assessment KS2

Mastery level Using LEGO to explain mastery

National expectations

Performance Descriptors e.g. KS1 Maths – Pupils working at national standard

Performance Descriptors e.g. Maths – Number and place value Working below national standard Pupils working towards national standard Pupils working at national standard Pupils working at mastery standard

All schools have been allowed to create their own assessment systems based around these end of Key Stage expectations. We wanted to ensure that we could moderate with other local schools to ensure consistency. We have, therefore, adopted a system created by Hampshire.

English and Maths assessment Children will be assessed at each milestone as to whether they are at age related expectations (ARE) READING: Supporting fluency, clarity, accuracy, and coherence Comp: Clarify Comp: Monitor and summarise Comp: Select and retrieve Comp:Reason and explain Themes and conventions Inference Language for effect NOTES FOR ACTION WRITING: Fluency, clarity, accuracy, coherence TranscriptionHandwritingComposition Vocab, Gram, Punctuation NOTES FOR ACTION MATHS: Solving problems & working across domains using: Number and Place value Addition and subtraction Multiplication and divisionFractionsMeasurementGeometryNOTES FOR ACTION Beyond Secure Close to No (not yet)

 English & Maths Assessment example English & Maths Assessment example

Foundation subjects  Y1-Y6 foundation subject assessment Y1-Y6 foundation subject assessment

Please remember this is all a new system that we will need to tweak along the way. We are part of a project group within Hampshire to moderate the system across the year. We will welcome feedback.
