This book explores the processes involved in developing assessment practice. It argues that the role of teacher assessment needs to be put firmly at the forefront of the educational agenda and that assessment by teachers needs to be developed in a widespread, high quality and sustainable fashion.
The authors, all members of the influential Assessment Reform Group, argue that the target-driven approach of external testing leads to problems, including 'teaching to the test' to the detriment of the wider curriculum, and motivational problems. In this book, they tackle the differences between formative and summative assessment and ask the question: "What is quality teacher assessment?"
There is coverage of key professional learning dimensions including:
The purposes of assessmentThe need for evidence to support innovationThe process and steps to develop new practicePerceptions of what counts as quality assessment in schoolsThe authors draw on these various perspectives to explain how teachers and schools can build on existing practice, and develop new practices, and how the system should react to support them.This book is essential reading for teachers, head teachers, local authority professionals, policy makers and academics.

Is there an ‘ideal’ primary school curriculum?
Who should decide what the curriculum is?
Should teachers have autonomy over how they teach?
The curriculum is the heart of what teachers teach and learners learn: effective teaching is only possible with an effective curriculum. Yet in spite of its importance, there has been a crisis in curriculum that has been caused in large part by governments assuming direct control over the curriculum, assessment, and increasingly, pedagogy.
Creating the Curriculum tackles this thorny issue head on, challenging student and practising primary school teachers to think critically about past and present issues and to engage with a new wave of curriculum thinking and development. Considering curriculum construction and its impact on teaching and learning in the four countries of the UK, key issues considered include:
who should decide the curriculum, its aims and its values
the extent to which issues in primary education swing back and forth
Subjects versus thematic organisation, stages and phases, progression, breadth and balance
prescription versus teacher autonomy
the key features of effective classroom practice
strategies for assessing the whole curriculum
how language in the classroom influences curriculum design
understanding curricula in the context of children’s social and personal circumstances
creativity, curriculum and the classroom.
Illustrated throughout with strategies and case studies from the classroom, Creating the Curriculum accessibly links the latest research and evidence with concrete examples of good practice. It is a timely exploration of what makes an effective and meanginful curriculum and how teachers can bring new relevance, motivation and powerful values to what they teach.
