Reflecting on your assessment practice

Whatever form of assessment you are using, in any area of the curriculum, it is important to check that you have incorporated not only knowledge and skills but also the values of justice, fairness and mutual responsibility. It is also important to look at how pupils try to make sense of the world around them. The activity on the right gives you an opportunity to do this. This activity is suitable for groups to carry out during a staff INSET session.
