Continuous Assessments
Continuous assessments are used to ascertain if the knowledge recently taught has been understood by the student. These include oral tasks administered to individual students or written tasks administered to the whole class for an entire lesson. Written tasks are completed in the Student Workbook.
Progressive Tests
A progressive test in week five is used to assess whether the knowledge over the past half a term or five weeks has been mastered and retained by the student.
Final Assessment
Final assessment occurs at the end of the unit in week ten and consists of a series of marked questions to assess understanding of the material taught in the previous ten weeks and provides an opportunity for students to demonstrate their understanding of the unit. Teachers assess students’ work using a Guide to Making Judgements (GTMJ).
