| Summary |
Education expert Professor Paul Black has evidence to show that getting the children to do the majority of the work in a classroom leads to significant school improvement. This is the first of two programmes explaining what is meant by formative assessment and showing how it is applied in a Hertfordshire primary school. At Two Waters Primary School, teacher Julia Turner uses formative assessment in a Year 6 revision lesson on light. She works with the pupils to determine the learning intention of the lesson. Then, using mind mapping, she collaborates with the class to develop the success criteria for the lesson. The children are given responsibility for their own learning. They work in small groups or pairs and choose their own resources. They go out of the classroom to use the library and ICT suite. The programme includes commentary from Paul Black and from headteacher Nanette Paine, who has successfully implemented formative assessment throughout the school |
