\n

There are many words that we would now wish to hear less often in this country, and indeed the world. From the irritating tautology of \u2018global pandemic\u2019 to the dread of \u2018self-isolation\u2019 \u2013 and let\u2019s not even get started on \u2018tiers\u2019 or \u2018alerts\u2019.<\/p>\n

So I\u2019ll start by apologising for offering up another roadmap. Much like the plans laid out by the government, it\u2019s neither a road, nor a map, but it does bear such a close relationship with other such representations that the name seemed appropriate.<\/p>\n

The first being the\u00a0Journey to 2022<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 a road that the Assessment Foundation have been travelling since before it was even published for schools. It\u2019s hard to believe that it has been six years since we attended meetings for the development of the Foundation Phase Profile, and were asked to pause some areas of work to take into account the release of the Successful Futures report in January 2015. The second being of course, the side-by-side paths laid out for the easing of lockdown on either side of the border.<\/p>\n

We\u2019d like to add to this by sharing ours with you today, because we know that the relationship between these two roadmaps comes with a heavy burden placed on schools. It\u2019s not only education children have lost, but wellbeing also. It\u2019s not only teaching time that teachers have lost, but the opportunity to prepare for the new curriculum in 2022.
\n\u200b
\nWhich is why we have focused our efforts on two things only;\u00a0supporting recovery\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0supporting the path to the future.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

We’ve developed online training modules targeted at understanding your assessment data in the best way to identify where and how children can be supported in catching up their learning. You can find out more and book a session for your school\u00a0here.<\/a><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
We’re also able to provide bespoke remote inset training if you’d like something custom to your school – please just let us know.<\/div>\n
\u201cPlease can I ask you to pass on my best wishes and thanks to the team. You have all been absolutely brilliant once again this year. You make things a lot easier for me, thank you.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/div>\n

\u200bMuch like assessment data, the move from year six to year seven is much more than just a number. Children moving from primary to secondary this year face a greater challenge still \u2013 much like those who made the transition last year had their schooling disrupted in their crucial final term.<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\u200bThis year, the Assessment Foundation are providing specialised support to secondary schools with transition data for the first time, helping secondary schools look at primary assessment data in depth, to understand what skills primary children bring with them.

\u200bThe\u00a0Implementation Plan<\/a>\u00a0for Curriculum 2022 sets out the support and direction provided for the 2021-22 academic year, and in case you missed it, last month we announced\u00a0Taith360<\/a>. Whilst it\u2019s up to schools to set their own localised curriculum and assessment arrangements,\u00a0Taith360<\/strong>\u00a0and our support team will be ready in September 2021 to help you with that.<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Taith360\u00a0\u2013 our new assessment system for Curriculum 2022 \u2013 is structured around the Areas of Learning. We\u2019re working with Welsh curriculum experts to produce an exemplar framework for each Area \u2013 but better still, you can\u00a0create your own custom framework\u00a0to use in the system.<\/div>\n
\u200b\u201cWe want to make sure we have the right assessment and planning system in place and from what I can see so far on your blog, Taith360 seems to be the complete package.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/div>\n
\n

With\u00a0Taith360<\/strong>\u00a0available from September 2021, we\u2019ll be ready to support your school in developing your own custom assessment for September 2022. You can start from our sample framework \u2013 or completely from scratch.\u00a0Taith360\u00a0<\/strong>puts flexibility, customisation \u2013 and most importantly, the pupil first.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re here to help<\/strong><\/p>\n

There\u2019s no sugar-coating the difficulties faced by schools. An already overburdened profession is being looked on to pick up the pieces of months of lost schooling, and with the same exhausted staff, take up the task of delivering a new curriculum too.<\/p>\n

The Assessment Foundation is a non-profit organisation with a guiding mission statement:\u00a0we want to reduce the non-teaching workload of teachers, and improve attainment for children.\u00a0<\/strong>It\u2019s the most overused phrase of them all \u2013 but\u00a0now, more than ever<\/em>\u00a0we want to help schools in any way we can.<\/p>\n
