At Bryn Teg teachers assess children’s learning through both formative and summative assessment methods.  Teachers use their judgements alongside termly tests, provided by GL, to ascertain pupil attainment and to measure progress. All children from Year 2 up undertake spelling, reading and maths. 

In Nursery on entry assessments are carried out through observation within the first 6 weeks of entry, Baseline assessments are also carried out at the start of the Reception year. These are updated termly to assess progress, further support needed and next steps. Observations are used within the Early years to support teaching and learning, identify children's interests and inform planning.  

In addition to these RWI assessments are carried out from Reception class up to year 3 and beyond as necessary. Data from these assessments identifies any children needing intervention or support.

The PASS survey is carried out on a termly basis to gauge the pupil’s attitude to self and school, the results are used to identify interventions needed such as ELSA or any outside agency support. 

Children from Year 2-6 also undertake WAG assessments during the school year and the results are shared with parents alongside their end of year report. 

Pupil Progress meetings are held termly, giving teachers and senior staff the opportunity to discuss and track pupils’ achievements and needs and provide support and challenge where appropriate. Input will also will be given via our ALNCO Mrs Lewis, in relation to specific additional learning needs.
