Description
Course Leader: Jen Sadler, Moderation Manager for Walsall LA.
Course Overview
This informative course is designed by the STA to prepare Key Stage Two moderators for the 2027 moderation processes. We are inviting Year 6 teachers and SLT/English Leads to join us to be able to receive exactly the same training as the moderators when assessing writing. This is a unique opportunity to delve deeply into each statement of the Teacher Assessment Framework and receive up-to-date, supportive CPD to understand the principles when assessing writing at each standard. All of the Key Stage Two moderators will also be in attendance and some will remain to sit the Standardisation Test One in the afternoon.
