2. How we assess in EYFS As soon as possible after entry, we assess Nursery children to see where they are developmentally. We continue to assess this during the year. In the final term in the nursery, the children are assessed using the Development Matters document. Reception, children are assessed to see where they are developmentally when they start the Reception year. Each pupil is then tracked in each of the areas of learning throughout the year. Any child who is not making the expected progress is placed on a tracking sheet that identifies their barriers to learning and ways in which teachers and support staff are working together to support the child. This includes any additional interventions that may need to take place to move children’s learning on. http://Development matters LinkDevelopment matters Link

5. Types of assessment Formative Assessment - Assessment for learning takes place during learning, working with the pupil to determine what is being learned and identifying what the 'next steps' should be. It is based on day to day classroom practice, where both teachers and pupils use feedback to improve the learning. Summative assessment - Assessment of learning takes place after the learning and tells us where pupils have been at given points in time and what has been achieved. It is used mainly to measure performance rather than support learning.
