A revised national curriculum from 2014 for all maintained schools

Academy/free schools do not have to follow the national curriculum

But all schools have the same assessment requirements

No more assessment levels

Each school is responsible for publishing its curriculum and assessment

framework

Schools will be held to account both on the progress they make and on how

well their pupils achieve— How is this done? SATs still up in the air

There will still need to be entry/exit data-looks like it will be some kind of numerical system

One attainment target

By the end of each key stage, pupils are expected to know, apply and

understand the matters, skills and processes specified in the relevant

programme of study

NAHT

Recommendation 4

Pupils should be assessed against objective and agreed criteria rather

than ranked against each other

Recommendation 6

In respect of the national curriculum, we believe it is valuable – to aid

communication, comparison and benchmarking – for schools to be

using consistent criteria for assessment. To this end, we call upon the

NAHT to develop and promote a set of model assessment criteria

based on the new national curriculum- NOTHING YET!

NAHT

Content of the

curriculum is

taken from the

school’s

curriculum which

is matched to the

new National

Curriculum (NNC)

Any gaps between

the school

curriculum and the

NNC must be filled

The curriculum

content will reflect

the entire year’s

delivery

Term one

The content here is driven by

the topic or theme used to

deliver the curriculum and

provide assessment

opportunities

Term two

Again, the content is driven

by the theme used to deliver

the curriculum

Term three

Again, the content is driven

by the topic or theme. At the

end of the year, the entire

curriculum for that year will

have been covered

Assessment criteria are

taken from the NNC

Key performance

indicators (KPIs) describe

a group of individual

criteria

Separate KPIs make up the end of year

performance standards (PS), that is the expected

performance at the end of the year and against

which assessments are made at the end of the year

An individual pupil’s work can be kept

to exemplify attainment against the

KPI and PS. This can be known as the

exemplification of performance. This

work should be annotated to highlight

the achievement

From individual pupil’s work the

school can create a standards file

showing achievement in all subjects

at each level. This will create a

benchmark for assessment purposes

in future years

The standards file can be used as

and when necessary to take part in

cross school moderation activities,

when the standards can be agreed or

altered according to decisions at the

moderation

Term one

KPIs clearly

stated for each

topic or theme

Term two

topic or theme
