'Assessing the Non Negotiables through Using and Applying Levels'

PART OF THE MATHS LEARNING CHALLENGE CURRICULUM

This publication has been written by a group of teachers in Bolton who wanted to find a consistent way of checking that not only have pupils got confidence with basic skills but that they can also use and apply the basics in different contexts.

The publication unpicks the mathematics non-negotiables (basic skills) for each year group and then matches with specific using and applying objectives (levelled). The user-friendly grids give teachers practical suggestions of ways to assess each basic skill.

Simple Self Evaluation: Replacing your SEF - Ref: SSE

HOW ARE YOU SHOWING YOUR SELF-EVALUATION POST-SEF?
This publication supports school leaders to show their self-evaluation in line with the new inspection framework (from January 2012). It provides leaders with a simple format that they can use to link the Ofsted criteria to their evaluation.
It has been trialled in a range of schools; including schools inspected as part of Ofsted’s piloting of the new framework. Feedback from headteachers has been hugely positive… ‘It is so simple but yet does everything it needs to. I wish I had used this instead of spending hours on the SEF’.

Improving Standards in Writing by using Writing Ladders Book - Ref: WRL

The Writing Ladder resource provides learners with an opportunity to improve the standard of their writing by focusing on any one of five different aspects of writing (see opposite). These five aspects link directly to APP outcomes.

There is no expectation for learners to use each of these strands but with support choose the one or two strands that require most attention.
Learners choose the most appropriate sheet within the strand they are trying to work on, i.e., Level1 to 2; Level 2 to 3; Level 3 to 4 or the Level 4 to 5. They then start at the bottom and move up the ladder demonstrating use of the challenge provided.
