# Assessment

## Assessment

Effective assessment systems provide meaningful information for schools, parents and pupils. They identify areas of strengths and areas for development for pupils and help drive improvement for pupils and teachers.

At Sholing Infant School we have identified our 'Assessment Principles' which underpin all of our practice.  Please click on the link at the bottom of this page to download a copy of our Assessment Principles.
