Assessment

At Sutton in Craven CP School assessment procedures focus on Year Group expectations. 

The Department for Education states that: 

• On -going, teacher led assessment is a crucial part of effective teaching; 

• Schools should have the freedom to decide how to teach their curriculum and how to track the  progress that pupils make; 

• Both ongoing teacher assessment and external testing are important 

• School systems for assessment must be fair and transparent; 

• Measures of progress and attainment are of equal importance and should both be used to assess school performance. 

• Information should be published in various forms to parents and the wider public to inform  them how well schools are doing.
