Key Stage 1 Assessment and Moderation in 2005
1. As
you will be aware, there are significant changes proposed to the assessment
arrangements at Key Stage 1. The time
line for the national roll out is below.
However, in order to ensure that schools can plan ahead we are writing
to inform you about the support and training available. As in previous years, 25% of schools will
have their results moderated through cluster group meetings. We have now reached the fourth year of the
cycle and I list below the schools that will be moderated in cluster groups in
2005. Further details will be sent to
these schools later in the Autumn Term.
2. Schools
with only one Year 2 teacher (and he/she is new to end of Key Stage 1 assessment) will be offered
additional support. To help us identify
these schools please would you complete and return the electronic form by
Friday 15th October 2004. N.B. You only need to complete this form if it
applies to your school. http://www.esinet.norfolk.gov.uk/advisory/KS1AuditModeration/default.asp
3. In
2005, we will again be arranging optional moderation meetings for clusters in
June. There is no DfES funding for this
but clusters could use part of their further delegated package for the
meeting. Further details will be sent
to you later in the Autumn Term.

(i.e. those listed below) as a similar programme will be covered at the
moderation meeting later in the spring term.
