Inclusion is a really big buzzword at the moment. This is one of the focuses of the Curriculum and Assessment Review and it is a priority for the Government as part of the SEND & AP Improvement Plan
It is not easy to define what inclusion looks like as there are so many variables, but it starts with intent – wanting to include everyone. Does your school include everyone? Or are there ways in your school where SEND students are separated from their mainstream peers? Assessment is often one of these areas, having one system for most students and another system for pupils with SEND. It is not just that there are 2 systems, it is how these 2 systems are used within the school that are different!
Join our FREE webinar – it’s your chance to understand how to use our assessment software Connecting Steps for students across your whole school, including pupils with SEND. See for yourself how simple it is to produce whole school data and ask us any questions.
Connecting Steps can be used with ALL students. Taking this consistent approach to assessment for all of your students supports meaningful communication about pupil progress at all levels. Connecting Steps has different frameworks for different cohorts, but it is one system that produces whole school data for ALL students, not just most students!
