We’re asking for views on issues related to assessment in primary schools, including:

  • the best starting point to measure the progress that pupils make at primary school
  • the role and operation of teacher assessment
  • how to build on the strengths of the early years foundation stage profile
  • how we can support and improve end-of-key-stage teacher assessment, including the assessment of writing

We’re also consulting on assessment arrangements for pupils working below the standard of national curriculum tests.
