Assessment policy. At the Kindergarten, students undergo ongoing assessments according to the common core standards and the competences set for attainment in the framework of the French program. Evaluations are based on fine observation of students individual work oral, written or manipulation activities. At the elementary level, grade 1 to 5, and according to the common core standards and the competences set for students' attainment, students undergo continuous forms of evaluations and common evaluations testing the acquired competences. All students at the secondary and upper secondary levels (from grade 6 to grade 12) undergo an evaluation system comprised of continuous short tests and end of term exams. Teachers carry out their continuous tests, in their own subject of teaching, with a common objective of helping students understand and learn the notion explained. The end of term exam is common for all students in the same grade level and in all disciplines. These exams have many objectives that are set at the beginning of each term and to which students are tested on. They are prepared by subject teachers and approved by the subject coordinators
Assessment policy. The school operates a variety of external standardized tests to support the UAE National Agenda such as CAT4 and GL Assessments in various Phases. Beyond those, we also operate assessments as follow: EYFS: Ongoing formative assessments throughout the year against Early Learning Goals, reported to parents in terms of competence in relation to the child's skills and understanding when set alongside their age-related expectations and with reference to the EYFS Development Matters guide. Primary (Years 1 - 6): • Ongoing formative assessments • End of unit assessments throughout the year • Term End Assessments (Winter, Spring and Summer), reported to parents to indicate standards achieved against age-related expectations and personal potential • NGRT (Reading age test) Secondary (Year 7-10) - In class tests, research projects and assessments - Term End Examinations (Winter, Spring and Summer), reported to parents to indicate standards achieved against age-related expectations and personal potential Secondary (Years 11 - 13): - In class tests - Project work - Coursework as applicable - Winter Term internal examinations and tests, reported to parents to indicate standards achieved against final IGCSE/A Level Grades and personal potential - Interim, Mock and Final IGCSE Exams (Year 11) - Interim, Mock and Final A Level/AS Level Exams (Year 12 and 13) Key assessment papers are shared with students after having been marked and moderated by staff, in order for targets for improvement to be identified.
Assessment policy. The purpose of this document is to outline the Assessment Policy of East Hills Boys High School for the Higher School Certificate in 2024. The HSC assessment mark is a mark gained by students in each of their Higher School Certificate courses based on their performance in set assessment tasks during the HSC year. Achievement may be measured through examinations, practical tests, fieldwork, assignments, class room presentations and in other ways. The marks submitted by the school are moderated (adjusted) by performance at the HSC examination. For most NSW Educational Standards Authority (NESA) Developed Courses, school-based assessment throughout the HSC course contributes 50% of your HSC mark, and is reported on your Record of Achievement along with your examination mark. The purpose of the school assessment in reporting for the HSC is to provide an indication of a student’s achievement based on: • a wider range of syllabus outcomes than may be measured by a single HSC examination. • multiple measures and observations made throughout the Higher School Certificate year, giving students credit for what they have achieved throughout their courses, in addition to their final examinations.

Assessment policy. It is our belief at The Arbor School that assessment does not come at the end of the learning process, but rather at the beginning and at regular points. That is, assessments should not be conceived after teaching a unit, but actually be designed as part of the planning process itself. This sense of ‘backwards planning’ enables the teacher to set out the key skills and knowledge to be assessed, and to create a unit plan that enables students to demonstrate those areas of learning. Assessment should therefore not be summative at the end of the unit, but rather frequent and cumulative, allowing students the opportunity to reflect and improve. For the Arbor School, this focus upon Assessment for Learning and its effect upon planning has opened up the possibilities of making the curriculum even more fit for purpose. Backwards planning gives teachers the opportunity to dispense with learning that does not move children towards the ‘big ideas’ and rids planning and teaching of unnecessary content. In practice, this means concentrating upon the skills, knowledge and understanding required by students at key points, such as for annual PTE/PTM/PTS assessments, IGCSE and A Level. We therefore envisage that it will help students ‘move beyond’ much more quickly and prepare students more rigorously for the academic challenges awaiting them. In order to understand your child's progress and attainment all students and parents receive; • An end of Term 1 progress report and an opportunity to meet staff to discuss your child’s learning during the term; • A Term 2 Parent - Teacher conference to discuss your child’s learning during the term; • An end of Year Full Report;
