5 steps to successful marking?Assessment day!

1) Student looks back at targets and DIRT from

previous module. A 10-20 minute DIRT session precedes the

assessment.

2) Student completes their piece and writes a short reflection on how they think they have done.

3) Teacher corrects and applies school literacy policy. School stamp shows WWW/EBI in relation to previous targets.

Teacher sets new target(s) Overall level/grade is recorded and whole

school stamp circled.

4) Student plans a PEE response. Student also records the level/mark achieved, and adds their current “working at” grade to the front cover

sticker.

5) 10-20 minute reflection/DIRT 2 weeks later.

Student re-visits target, chooses common error(s) from previous piece and

applies to next module/unit.

Student now turns attention to next assessment!
