Secondary assessment. Sharing the criteria. Assessment for learning. 4
Description
A successful Durham school has pushed results even higher by developing their own style of AFL. We see students getting to grips with the hidden internal workings of formal assessment as they work towards exams. The top Year 10 English group use GCSE grading criteria to look at their creative writing skills in coursework, and the students describe the value of knowing what goes on behind the scenes as far as assessment is concerned. Headteacher Joan Sjovoll explains the pressure she's under from aspirational parents, and an AS-Level group practise marking exam papers in Health and Social Care. Head of Business Studies Jonathon Knowler remembers a time when marking criteria were a secret. Finally, LEA adviser Ron Rooney comments on the current results-driven climate in which schools must operate.
