Teachers of pupils with special educational needs are now expected to conduct and report an annual National Curriculum assessment, as well as to track and report progress termly in line with IEP targets. For those pupils functioning below NC level 1, the P (Performance) Scales provide the official eight-point assessment scale - but this is so far removed from mainstream classroom experience that many SENCOs, teachers and teaching assistants at KS2 and KS3 working with 'included' pupils have real difficulty in making P-level assessments.
This photocopiable resource is matched to the current Primary Framework and provides focused 'small steps' assessments in speaking and listening, reading, writing and numeracy, designed specifically for use with pupils who are working between level P4 and NC level 2B. All of the assessments have been carefully trialled to ensure that content and illustrations are appropriate for KS2 and KS3 pupils, encourage reluctant learners to engage, and do not make excessive demands upon pupils' abilities and concentration span. Purpose-written and age-neutral tasks systematically assess the behaviours and subject milestones which describe progress, allowing confident and accurate assessment of each pupils attainment in the core aspects of literacy and numeracy.
Detailed advice on error analysis, interpretation and using the test results to guide target setting for IEPs and intervention are also included.
