Assessment Policy
Excellence International Schools recognizes that teaching, learning and assessment of the learners are fundamentally interdependent. Learning outcomes, which include knowledge and understanding of a subject as well as cognitive, personal and academic skills, should be explicitly stated for each unit of work/assignment/course, and these should be the pivot around which the whole scheme is developed.
At Excellence International Schools, we believe that assessment
- Monitors the progress of student learning and achievement;
- Produces coherent feedback for students, parents and external institutions; and
- Informs curriculum and assessment review.
At Excellence International Schools, we recognize that students
- Have differing learning styles;
- Have different cultural experiences, expectations and needs;
- Perform differently according to the context of learning;
- Need to know their achievements and areas for improvement in the learning process;
- Should receive feedback that is positive and constructive.
