Assessment in Primary Science

Areas for further research

There is a good deal now known about the importance of formative assessment and the ways in which teachers can incorporate this into their science teaching. There is work to be done to find the best ways develop teacher’s professional expertise in using the evidence from such assessment to impact on further learning. We welcome examples of approaches to formative feedback including video and details of interventions which have enabled learners to overcome barriers to learning they were experiencing.
