    Impact

    Attainment in writing is measured consistently throughout the year using the Herts for Learning teacher assessment frameworks, which have been taken from the National Curriculum.

    For those children who have yet to access the Year 1 statements, pre key stage assessments are used to track progress.

    Termly moderations take place, to quality assure judgements made. These are either in house, or as part of a cluster of local schools. We use the Assessing Primary Writing (No more marking- Comparative Judgment) to support with writing moderation.

    Termly unaided writing is added to a pupil's writing folder and formally assessed. Summative assessments are recorded on the Target Tracker monitoring and assessment programme termly. 

    End of Key Stage writing: teachers will assess a selection of pieces of writing in Year 2, using this to inform reported Teacher assessment judgements. Exemplification materials are used to support judgements made.

    Spelling, Punctuation and Grammar: For those year groups, using RWI spellings progress is assessed each half term. 

    SPAG SATS assessments may be used to assess pupils at the end of Year 2

    Termly common exception word assessments and regular monitoring of pupil's work inform individual pupil's spelling targets.
