Key Stage 2 English in Wales, optional support for teacher assessment

Client: ACCAC | NFER Contact:

The project was concerned with the development (and development process) of assessment materials to be used by teachers in Wales now that statutory testing at the end of key stage 2 (KS2) has been abolished. The aim was to provide teachers with a rich (and free), optional resource that would allow for assessment of pupils’ abilities in a wide range of skills and competencies embedded in the English curriculum, and demonstrate how teacher assessments could be used both summatively and formatively.
