Eligibility: This course is open to Y6 teachers from any junior or primary school.
If you have attended Assessment: Statutory Assessment for Y6 Teachers (INT475) on 27th November, you do not need to attend this course
This half day, online training session, fully updated for 2025-26, supports Year 6 teachers to make confident, nationally aligned judgements about writing at the end of Key Stage 2. Focused entirely on standardisation, the session offers time to explore benchmarked examples of pupil work and engage in professional dialogue about what constitutes a secure judgement.
Designed as a practical and focused alternative to the full-day training, this online course covers the same exploration of exemplification materials and supports teachers to revisit assessment criteria in depth. It is ideal for experienced Year 6 teachers who are familiar with statutory processes and who are also attending a twilight briefing to address the administration of statutory assessment. It is also suitable for those seeking a focused opportunity to strengthen assessment accuracy and confidence in an online training session.
