• Course overview



    Eligibility: This course is open to Y1 & Y2 teachers from any infant or primary school.

    Although statutory assessment at the end of KS1 is no longer with us, nationally exemplified standards at the end of Y2 remain a valuable benchmark. Tracking pupils’ attainment towards this point continues to support schools to identify pupil needs in a timely manner.

    This practical workshop supports teachers in Y1 and Y2 to maintain clarity around reading and writing expectations, and strengthen their assessment skills. Using a range of real pupil examples, participants will explore what age-related standards look like in practice, both within their year group and KS1. Whether teachers come alone or in pairs, this is an opportunity to broaden points of reference and work with colleagues from different schools.

    Teachers are encouraged to bring their preferred assessment framework (e.g the Integra Teacher Assessment Criteria). The session offers reflection, practical strategies, and time to work with colleagues beyond your own context, to encourage confident and informed judgements back at school. 


    Learning outcomes

    As a result of this course, you will have knowledge and skills in the following areas:

    • Greater confidence to make accurate mid-year assessments of reading and writing in KS1
