Verbal dialogue

Teachers circulate with purpose, checking pupils’ work, marking if appropriate and collecting information on whole-class strengths, errors, misconceptions, knowledge gaps etc. The teacher adjusts their lesson accordingly.

Self/peer assessment

During lessons, pupils mark their own work, by either the class teacher reading out the answer or using the answers in the back of the text books. 

Pupils provide written feedback through strengths/targets and annotations, as appropriate (not needed every lesson).

Peer and self-assessment should be completed in blue pen.

During lessons pupils will review their own and peers work to make relevant points on how to improve their work.

Whole Class Feedback

When pupils have completed a unit of work, books will be collected in and the class teacher will look through the work covered during that topic and make notes on the pupils’ strengths and areas for development.  Teachers are not expected to make any comments in the pupil’s books.

Teachers will then use this information to provide whole class feedback on what pupils are doing well and how pupils can improve their work further. This will be delivered to the whole class at the start of the next lesson.

Evidence of whole class feedback will be in pupils exercise book, written in blue pen.

Written comments

Teachers in this department are expected to provide written comments (2 strengths and 1 target) twice each half term, for each class they teach.  These can take the format of either differentiated DIRT tasks or Knowledge checks.

DIRT (Dedicated improvement and reflection time)

Pupils complete a self-assessment task within class and identify an area of weakness they feel they need to work on.  The class teacher will provide a selection of short tasks, one for each of the learning objectives covered.

Knowledge checks

 A couple weeks after the completion of a unit of work, pupils are given a set of questions covering all the learning objectives covered.  These are completed individually, where pupils are allowed to use their blue books to help recall information needed to complete the question.

These tasks are to be marked by the class teacher identifying strengths and areas for improvement, which will be shared the following lesson.

During the theory units Teachers will provide a written comment 2 strengths and 1 target) and from this differentiated task will be given.

These extra tasks may take any format but are likely to be DIRT sheets (linked to that topic which is being worked on) and knowledge checks (recap at prior learning)

These tasks are to be marked by the class teacher identifying strengths and areas for improvement, which will be shared the following lesson.

During Coursework units no written feedback can be given as this is controlled.

Frequency of feedback

Verbal dialogue will take place as and when required throughout every lesson

Self/peer-assessment

~ Pupils are expected to mark their own work and make any corrections in blue pen as required throughout the lesson.

~ after completion of homework, pupils are expected to mark their homework and give strengths and targets for improvement.

~ After completion of formal assessments, pupils fill in a ‘pupil self-assessment’ where they RAG rate their performance in each of the learning objectives covered in the assessment.

Whole class feedback

At least once in every unit of work, as appropriate for the pace of the class.

Written comments

This will happen around twice per half term, as appropriate for the pace of the class.

Response to feedback

Pupils should mark all their work in blue pen. 

After self/peer-assessments pupils should be given time to complete corrections or annotate their work in blue pen.

Whole class feedback can take a variety of formats, class teacher decides what is appropriate for individual classes.  This could be a matching exercise, differentiated questions, fill in the blanks or answer key questions relating to that particular topic.

Written comments may consist teacher using a marking code and then pupils copying the strengths and targets from the board.

Summative assessment

1 x formal assessment each half term.

Main focus of each assessment is that half terms learning objectives.  Also included are questions from prior learning from this key stage
