8. Collection of evidence
As class teachers we are constantly collecting evidence of your child’s work.
The writing that children carry out daily is used to support our teacher judgements.
We also carry out regular independent writing activities that allow children to write freely for a longer, more sustained period of time.
Summer 1 - Children will carry out standardised tests. These support the teacher’s judgements however only form a snapshot of the capabilities of a child.
