In 2022, CfEY embarked on an exciting new journey into assessment innovation. We wanted to create a new rigorous, flexible and scalable assessment instrument for eleven-year-olds that any primary school across the UK (and possibly beyond) could use to support the development and recognition of a wide set of learning dispositions, that extend beyond what the national curriculum and SATs currently value.
With support from awarding organisation NCFE and in partnership with multi-academy trust Big Education, we are now in the final design stages for the Primary Extended Project Award (PEPA). We are looking forward to beginning prototyping and piloting later this year – read on to find out more and how you can get involved.
