Evaluation and assessment

    Start here if you are looking for practitioner research with a focus on any and all aspects of evaluation of the whole organisation down to individual learners. This includes:

    • assessment of the whole organisation or of specific programmes by Ofsted, QAA, ESFA, professional bodies and other external validators
    • externally validated summative assessment and examination of learners’ work leading to a qualification
    • evaluation of performance of staff
    • formative assessment (designed for feedback and performance improvement) of learners, staff, courses, programmes and whole institutions.
