Internal Assessment

(a) Objectives

Assessment is the practice of collecting evidence of student learning. First and foremost, it gives feedback to students, teachers, the schools and parents on the effectiveness of teaching and on students' strengths and weaknesses in learning. Secondly, it provides information to the school to monitor standards and to facilitate selection decisions. The most important role of assessment is in promoting learning and monitoring students' progress. Internal Assessment (Assessment for learning) is concerned with obtaining feedback on learning and teaching, and utilising this to make learning more effective and to introduce any necessary changes to teaching strategies.
