Thoughts • Do you need to be a ‘spreadsheet Steve’ to make this effective? • Does it still rely too much on empirical measurements (is it just level marking in disguise? ) • Is it worth the front-loading (e. g. personalised mail-merged assessments etc)? • Designed and rolled out before GCSE reforms – does it still fit? • Your thoughts/questions/ideas?
