The aim of this presentation is to signpost the resources available for Planning Learning, Teaching and Assessment in the BGE and to explore key messages from the National Thematic Inspection of Assessment.

A further Early Level presentation developed by practitioners in West Lothian has also been added. This is titled – Application of Numeracy and Maths Skills through STEM, Outdoor Learning and Play. More practitioner presentations will be recorded over the coming weeks and added to the site.

Supporting Collaboration for Planning Learning, Teaching and Assessment Online Sessions

CANCELLED: Supporting Collaboration for Planning Learning, Teaching and Assessment Online Sessions

Monday 18th January – Early Level

Thursday 21st January – First Level

Monday 25th January – Second Level

Thursday 28th January – Secondary (BGE)

Given the change in circumstances and move to remote learning, we have consulted with practitioners who were due to co-present at the above sessions and have decided to cancel the event.

Although the sessions are cancelled, we will be publishing the Education Scotland presentation on the Moderation Hub during the week beginning Monday 18th January. We will also be working with practitioners to record their presentations and intend to share these on the Moderation Hub before the end of February.

We hope that sharing the presentations online will support practitioners when planning learning, teaching and assessment in the BGE. We also plan to provide opportunities for practitioners to collaborate and discuss approaches to learning, teaching and assessment both during the period of remote learning and upon return to school.

Practitioners have been informed of this change and participants will also be notified this morning.

Regards,

NIF Team
