A revised national curriculum from 2014 for all maintained schools

No more assessment levels
Each school is responsible for publishing its curriculum and assessment
framework
Schools will be held to account both on the progress they make and on how
well their pupils achieve— How is this done? SATs still up in the air
There will still need to be entry/exit data-looks like it will be some kind of numerical system
One attainment target
By the end of each key stage, pupils are expected to know, apply and
understand the matters, skills and processes specified in the relevant
programme of study

Recommendation 4
Pupils should be assessed against objective and agreed criteria rather
than ranked against each other
Recommendation 6
In respect of the national curriculum, we believe it is valuable – to aid
communication, comparison and benchmarking – for schools to be
using consistent criteria for assessment. To this end, we call upon the
NAHT to develop and promote a set of model assessment criteria
based on the new national curriculum- NOTHING YET!

National and school curriculum - measuring and recording progress across key stages – NAHT assessment model
Content of the
curriculum is
taken from the
school’s
curriculum which
is matched to the
new National
Curriculum (NNC)
Any gaps between
the school
curriculum and the
NNC must be filled
The curriculum
content will reflect
the entire year’s
delivery
Term one
The content here is driven by
the topic or theme used to
deliver the curriculum and
provide assessment
opportunities
Term two
Again, the content is driven
by the theme used to deliver
the curriculum
Term three
Again, the content is driven
by the topic or theme. At the
end of the year, the entire
curriculum for that year will
have been covered
Assessment criteria are
taken from the NNC
Key performance
indicators (KPIs) describe
a group of individual
criteria
Separate KPIs make up the end of year
performance standards (PS), that is the expected
performance at the end of the year and against
which assessments are made at the end of the year
The standards file can be used as
and when necessary to take part in
cross school moderation activities,
when the standards can be agreed or
altered according to decisions at the
moderation
From individual pupil’s work the
school can create a standards file
showing achievement in all subjects
at each level. This will create a
benchmark for assessment purposes
in future years
An individual pupil’s work can be kept
to exemplify attainment against the
KPI and PS. This can be known as the
exemplification of performance. This
work should be annotated to highlight
the achievement
Term one
KPIs clearly
stated for each
topic or theme
Term two
KPIs clearly
stated for each
topic or theme
Term three
KPIs clearly
stated for each
topic or theme
