Seminar DateWednesday 23 September

Duration45 minutes
Seminar Description

Making Curriculum for Excellence work for all young people will require staff to share expectations about standards, what to look for in pupils' responses and then to share successful learning activities to support these. It will require robust and credible assessment that supports quality teaching.

When staff develop shared meaning about the curriculum and its outcomes, teaching becomes more purposeful, staff are more confident and their assessment decisions fairer and more accurate. This sharing needs a structure to make the best use of time, expertise and experience. It needs to be a planned, deliberate approach that builds capacity and consistency of judgements.

This workshop will address various aspects of collaboration: purpose, timing and practical details and the ways in which leaders can encourage and facilitate local moderation processes. It is relevant to primary and secondary school staff and will consider local moderation across a range of learning areas.

The LTS Assessment Team will showcase a new resource designed to support staff use of local moderation processes within and across schools and authorities The innovative structure of this resource starts from the work staff are already doing in local moderation and provides them with a picture of “What a good one looks like.”
