Aims of the Session To become familiar with the layout and terminology used in the new framework To understand how and why we assess progress in EAL and to consider how the framework can be used by EAL Specialists and their colleagues. To become familiar with the DFE Codeset for proficiency in English and be able to use it with the NASSEA Steps. To be aware of the new code for nationality and country of origin. To become prepared and confident enough to use the framework in school.

Assessment of EAL pupils Who are EAL pupils? Why have a different assessment to one used by schools? What are the challenges of assessing International New Arrivals (INA) or more fluent speakers of English?
4
Outcomes judgements The main weight of evidence will be for current pupils in all year groups across subject areas not just English and mathematics When considering judgements most weight will be given to progress particularly from starting points

Meet the pupils Use the Case Study and try to place the pupil on the framework. Can you choose two targets as the next step for the pupil? Can you choose one or two suggestions to help the teacher to meet the needs of the pupil?

Over to you! How do you currently assess the language development of learners of EAL? How could you incorporate the new NASSEA EAL Assessment Framework into your current assessment procedures? Which pupils will you assess? When will you assess them?

DFE – Proficiency in English and associated codeset Initial collection – autumn 2016 Annual collection from spring 2017 Target group – EAL pupils in R and above DFE codes A to E Which one should I use? NASSEA Steps and the DFE Scale
18
Proficiency in English The data on the English proficiency of EAL pupils will be used to inform policy on this high needs group with the basic rationale being that current data on EAL pupils does not distinguish between pupils who lack a basic command of the English language versus those who are bilingual and have mastered English sufficiently to access the curriculum. English proficiency statistics would therefore provide for the first time important national statistics on the characteristics of this group, along with their attainment and destinations and allow the Department to measure whether the individual pupils, or the schools they attend, face additional educational challenges.
