Assessing Pupils Progress (APP)
The DCSF is making substantial financial support available for AfL and has announced a total of £150 million over the 2008-11 Comprehensive Spending Review period (£50 million per year) in order that schools can use formative assessment to drive pupil progress.

The Assessing Pupils Progress (APP) materials have been produced to strengthen schools' approaches to AfL and are designed to secure teachers' summative assessment judgements of pupil progress in Key Stage 3. APP materials for reading and writing were distributed to all secondary schools in 2006 and those for maths in the early part of 2007. APP materials for speaking and listening and for science will be distributed during 2007-08. Following succesful piloting in primary schools, comparable materials are being rolled out nationally in 2008.

See Assessment on the Primary Framework site

See Professional Development page for details of the APP programme in Camden.

Implications for Teaching and Learning
Each year the National Assessment Association carries out an analyisis of pupil performance in the National Curriculum tests which result in two products:

Leaflets
The leaflets 'Implications for teaching and learning' based on an analysis of the 2006 tests are being distributed to schools as well as being available to download from the QCA site (link below). They are intended to be displayed as a wall poster and are intended for colleagues involved in the delivery and assessment of the national curriculum, as they identify areas that teachers may want to emphasise when planning lessons.

Presentations
As in 2005 NAA is producing a series of presentations based on the 2006 analysis of pupil performance to be made available only online by early December. The presentations will include examples of pupils' responses to the 2006 test and detailed discussions of the implications for teaching and learning.
