Description: | Select Guide Rating Inspirational stories of pAractice showing how children can achieve progress in keeping with the principles of Learning without Limits. This book explores assessment practices that offer an enlightening and enabling view of all learners. Following the demise of national curriculum levels, the book embraces a unique opportunity to change how children are assessed. Rather than simply replacing the old structure with a new one, it focuses instead on enabling children to learn in meaningful ways so that assessment becomes a tool for improvement rather than judgment by building on two influential research studies, Learning without Limits (Hart et al 2004) and Creating Learning without Limits (Swann et al 2012). “Everyone who cares about children’s lives and their futures should read this book!” "This book tackles the difficult and very important task of bringing together the Learning Without Limits big ideas and the challenging topic of assessment.” “This is a great book, and as one of the nine teachers who was part of the original ‘Learning without Limits’ research project I can vouch for Dame Alison Peacock’s unswerving commitment to, and passion for, the principles of Learning without Limits embodied within its pages.”
