What people say about the Assessment Essentials course
“I really enjoyed this course – it was exactly what I needed for my PD and way beyond the quality my school can provide in-house!.”
“A gem of a course! This is the most valuable PD I have had in a long time. The quality of materials is excellent and the ability to work through the course in one’s own time is extremely helpful for the busy teacher!”
“The course has been genuinely useful and encouraged me to re-think some of the departmental-level assessment practices we had.”
“It has helped make better use of progressive achievement assessments, helping us to look at what actions we can take with that information.”
