Impact
The impact of pupils’ learning will be assessed in the following ways:
- Formative assessment through teacher feedback
- Summative assessment will identify children who have reached expected standards and those working either above or below. Pupil responses – this may be evidenced in topic books and will give an indication of children’s understanding.
- EXPRESS end of unit activities that allow children to collate and present their learning in independent and creative ways.
Floor Books
All of learning is captured in our topic floor books. These show the journey of work the children have completed across a half term in all of the different subjects.
Curriculum Review
- Subject leaders regularly complete book and planning scrutinies to ensure there is no mismatch between the planned and delivered curriculum.
- Book, planning and pupil questioning will demonstrate whether pupils successfully ‘learn the curriculum’ and are using specific subject specific vocabulary effectively.
Evaluating and updating the Cornerstone curriculum
Shillingstone CE Primary School began the Cornerstones curriculum in September 2020 and as this is a new way of working for the school, we will be evaluating the curriculum half termly to see how staff and children are responding. We can change the way topics are approached and delivered as we see how it works in practice. There are many opportunities for children to participate and contribute to the life of the school and we encourage them to take responsibility and become active citizens of our school community, our local community and the wider world
