Marking Policy
Marking of children’s work is a fundamental part of the process of teaching and learning in school and is an important part of the assessment process. Marking demonstrates a respect for the work produced, gives feedback and indicates the ways in which the individual child can improve. Marking will also encourage the child to look at errors in a positive manner. This is in line with the school’s positive approach to self-assessment.
This policy belongs with the set of policies on Assessment, Record Keeping and Reporting. It also takes into account the school’s policy on Equal Opportunities. This policy has whole school agreement and parents and children were consulted when developing this policy.
