Assessment is for Learning
Self-assessment toolkits for schools and Early Years
Adapting principles to one’s own context
These toolkits are designed to help schools, Early Years establishments and their teaching staff to determine how well they have incorporated the principles of Assessment is for Learning into their practice. They link the ten statements of the AifL triangle to quality indicators relevant to each context, and offer some thoughts and resources to help develop AifL practice.
Self-assessment Toolkit for Early Years
This is designed for Early Years establishments and staff. The approaches to assessment are evaluated by using performance indicators from The Child at the Centre - Self evaluation in the Early Years and the National Care Standards.
Self-assessment Toolkit for schools: second edition
This is for schools and their teaching staff. The approaches to assessment are evaluated by using relevant quality indicators and themes from How Good is our School Part 3 - The Journey to Excellence.
Toolkit updates
The Schools' Toolkit has now been updated, and re-launched as an online resource. In this second edition, the ten key features of AifL have been remapped, to take account of How Good is our School 3 – The Journey to Excellence, and the four capacities of Curriculum for Excellence.
An updated Early Years version will follow shortly.
