How We Assess & Support Learners Online
We believe assessment should be continuous, supportive, and child-friendly.
1. Initial Diagnostic Assessment
- Online baseline assessment for every child
- Identifies strengths, gaps, and learning needs
- Places children at the right level, not just by age
2. Ongoing Topic-Based Assessments
- Short assessments after each topic
- Checks understanding, accuracy, and reasoning
- Clear feedback shared with parents
3. Live Online Teaching
- One-to-one or small group lessons
- Interactive tools, visuals, and real-life examples
- Continuous assessment through:
- Targeted questioning
- Mini tasks
- Verbal explanations
4. Weekly & Monthly Progress Tracking
- Progress tracked against year-group expectations
- Additional support provided where needed:
- Targeted intervention
- Revision sessions
- Extended or simplified tasks
5. Parent Communication
- Regular progress updates
- Clear indicators if a child is:
- Working below expected level
- Working at expected level
- Working above expected level
- Practical guidance for supporting learning at home
