Department Context ?

Questions to ask to establish a

foundation for this groups work:

Does your department have a marking and assessment policy? If so, how does it
tie in with the school policy? How has it been personalised for the demands and
structure of your subject area?
What assessment criteria do you use when marking?
[e.g. APP; content or skill-based level descriptors...]

What type of marking and assessment do you do in your department?

[e.g. Formative; summative; peer; self; light touch; verbal; AtL grades; acknowledgement
marking (ticks); green pen; detailed teacher marking for a specific focus; literacy marking;
target setting; WWW/EBI etc...]

How do you recognise these different types of marking and assessment?

[e.g. Stickers; stamps; different colour pens; highlighting and labelling; use of frameworks;
stick-in sheets...]

What opportunities are there for pupil response?

[e.g. spelling lists; re-drafting; DIRT; improvement tasks...]
