ARBs in the ASSESSMENT MIX

In this article, two recent case studies are used to give examples of how Assessment Resource Bank (ARB) resources, along with other assessment tools, are being used for both formative and summative purposes in a primary and intermediate school. Staff at both these schools engage in a detailed analysis of their formative practices, and the data gained from summative assessments, to ensure that the results of assessments inform learning and contribute to improving classroom practice.
