November 2015 Wigmore Teaching Schools Alliance Data and Assessment project

Statutory Assessments assessments-2016-sample-materials From summer 2016 the results of national curriculum tests at Key Stage 1 and 2 will be reported in the form of scaled scores. The Department has been clear, however, that schools should have the freedom to develop their own approaches to in-school assessment between key stages and that this should not necessarily emulate statutory assessment for accountability purposes. The Commission urges schools to guard against designing or purchasing assessment systems modelled on statutory arrangements for teacher assessment, regardless of how these may change over time. Performance descriptors, sample materials and information on scaled scores have recently been released:

Levels did not lend themselves to assessing the underpinning knowledge and understanding of a concept. For example, using certain vocabulary in written work was indicative of a level, but did not necessarily provide evidence of conceptual understanding. The changes to the new national curriculum now provide the basis for a different, more secure assessment based on deeper learning. The new national curriculum is premised on this kind of understanding of mastery, as something which every child can aspire to and every teacher should promote. It is about deep, secure learning for all with extension of able students (more things on the same topic) rather than acceleration (rapidly moving on to new content). In developing new approaches to assessment, schools have the opportunity to make ‘mastery for all’ a genuine goal. Assessing knowledge and understanding of the new national curriculum

What this has meant for this system: A new ‘Greater Depth’ measure in every year group. No transition measures in year 6 – this is covered with Greater Depth In Year 1 the levels have been broken down further for children who are still working on Early Learning Goals (up to the Summer Term). For pupils with SEN, P Scales have been broken down in order to show progress. Progress across the academic year is now 4 points instead of 3 due to the new measure. 2 Points will be expected by the end of Autumn, 3 points by the end of Spring and 4 by the end of the academic Year.

Summary of level breakdown within a curriculum Year

KS1 Levels

KS2 Levels

Age expectations: Age expectation remains the same. A child is “expected” to be “secure” by the end of the national curriculum year that they are being taught in.

Progress: Expected Progress is now 4 points instead of 3 points. This is to accommodate the new “greater depth”.
