Next Step MarkingNext Step Marking
• Feedback to children is essential in order for them to move forward in their learning.
• Feedback can be verbal or written as a ‘next step’ on the children’s work.
• Quality written feedback gives a specific next step that would significantly improve the piece of work.
• Children are given time to respond to the feedback and make the suggested improvements.
SID Marking
Strength- Identify and praise a strength in the child’s work.
Improvement- Suggest an improvement or ask an open question.
Dialogue- Initiate dialogue for the child to respond to.
Comments should always be about the learningComments should always be about the learning
Try to avoid comments like those above. Referring to presentation does not help explain to the student why the work is good nor how it can be improved. Always make it about the learning!
That’s neat! Well done!You’ve presented that beautifully! That’s very colourful…
Your partitioning of numbers is excellent as they are all in the right columns. Can you try with three digit numbers now?
I love the complex sentence that you have
used to add further information for the
reader. Can you include a simple sentence
so that you have a range of sentence types?

Target OwnershipTarget Ownership
• Set targets based on your knowledge of each student and personalise them.
• Ensure targets are ‘smart’ and concise.
• Plan regular opportunities for each student to meet their target.
• Ensure that students have time to reflect upon their target/s within teaching sessions and build in self and peer assessment opportunities.
• During Parents’ Evenings, share the students’ targets and discuss ways in which they can work towards these both at home and at school.
Peer and Self- AssessmentPeer and Self- Assessment
Peer assessment and self-assessment is much more than children marking their own or each other's work. To improve learning, it must be an activity that engages children with the quality of their work and helps them reflect on how to improve it.
Peer assessment enables children to give each other valuable feedback so they learn from and support each other. It adds a valuable dimension to learning: the opportunity to talk, discuss, explain and challenge each other enables children to achieve beyond what they can learn unaided.
Peer assessment helps develop self-assessment, which promotes independent learning, helping children to take increasing responsibility for their own progress.
““Students can perform a variety of assessment tasks in ways which both save Students can perform a variety of assessment tasks in ways which both save the tutor's time and bring educational benefits, especially the development the tutor's time and bring educational benefits, especially the development of their own judgement skills.” of their own judgement skills.”
