Description
Assessment is an area that students find notoriously difficult to put into practice, particularly as models of good practice have not always been established in their placement schools. What's more, most students are only in school for a number of weeks which means that they aren't able to appreciate the full 'assessment' picture. This book seeks to redress this, providing students and teacher trainers with the most accessible, informative overview of how assessment works. Essential reading for everyone involved in primary education.
