The formative use of summative tests
-
Pupils should be engaged in a reflective review of the work they have done to enable them to plan their revision effectively.
-
Pupils should be encouraged to set questions and mark answers to help them, both to understand the assessment process and to focus further efforts for improvement.
-
Pupils should be encouraged through peer and self-assessment to apply criteria to help them understand how their work might be improved.
-
Summative tests should be, and should be seen to be, a positive part of the learning process.
