Standardisation and moderation. (Reading and Writing)

With the increased Ofsted focus on the accuracy and impact of assessment to establish pupils' starting points and modifying teaching so that pupils achieve their potential, it is essential that teacher judgements are accurate so that they can build on learning. There will be opportunities for delegates to agree what ‘expected’ looks like for their year group and then apply this knowledge within the moderation process. The process can be applied to further aspects of learning back in the classroom.

Delegates will need to bring along a range of books/evidence base from which to moderate following the standardisation.
