HOW DO WE ASSESS |
Formative and Summative Assessment |
|
There are largely two kinds of assessment methods- Formative and Summative. Formative assessment methods are where the understanding and skills of children are assessed on a continuous basis through multiple methods. Summative assessment methods are where the knowledge of children is assessed through periodic tests and examinations. At Redbricks, we have a combination of formative and summative assessment methods in order to get a holistic picture of the children. Both are important tools to assess children's development, as it is not only knowledge (can be rote-memorized), but also its application and understanding that we want to assess. |
