GL’s expertise in assessment has been gained from decades of working with schools and teachers.
Their goal is to enable every child to realise their full potential by taking a ‘whole pupil view’ which takes into account ability to achieve, current attainment, and any barriers to learning they may have.
GL works with partners, including King’s College London and the University of York, to ensure that their assessments are the most rigorous, academically sound and in line with current best practice in education. GL assessments are also widely used by the Education Endowment Foundation (EEF) to measure the impact of their intervention research, and they are also used by schools and Governments in over 100 countries worldwide.
The right assessments and data are vital to support teachers seeking to demonstrate progress, close the attainment gap and ensure every student is maximising their potential.
GL assessments help Caplora International School meet these challenges with a range of assessments that are built on the best academic research and extensive trialling, use a powerful digital assessment system, and generate instant reports that enable you to make quick and effective use of the data.
PT (PROGRESS TEST) ASSESSMENTS
The Progress Test Series (PT Series) helps accurately measure how our school and our students are performing in English, maths and science against the national average – and measure both in-year, and year on year progress.
Standardised on over 100,000 children, the easy-to-use tests assess knowledge, understanding and application of the core curriculum subjects, helping The Caplora School to understand current levels of attainment and identify any gaps in learning at both an individual and cohort level.
The tests are used at the start of the year for baselining and at the end of the year to measure and track progress. Detailed reports analyse key dimensions of learning for each subject and provide a question-by-question breakdown to help identify those students who require more challenging targets and those who may need extra support.
