In this Best Practice Focus, Matt Bromley considers good practice for assessment and feedback, including five strategies for formative assessment and what these look like in the classroom.
We also hear from Professor Dylan Wiliam, who outlines five perspectives on why formative assessment is at the heart of good teaching.
We look at each of the five strategies in turn, offering links to the relevant research, discussion of how the strategy works in practice, and practical examples of how we might implement the strategy as part of our teaching, assessment and feedback.
The advice is just as relevant to classroom teachers as it is to middle leaders and senior leaders.
This Best Practice Focus has been produced with support from the SSAT – the Schools, Students and Teachers network – whose Embedding Formative Assessment programme has been written by Professor Dylan Wiliam and Siobhan Leahy.
