An Alternative Evidence Gathering Templates and some updated Remote Assessment Matrix for Level 1 RAS standards have been published on the Technology subject pages.
Alternative Evidence Gathering Templates
These templates must only be used to record student achievement and report results where remote assessment is the only practical option and the collection of direct assessment evidence from students has not been at all possible.
Alternative evidence is student evidence for internally assessed standards that has been seen or heard within the teaching and learning programme. These templates do not signal a reduction in what is accepted for each grade, but rather a means of summarising evidence for reporting.
These templates must be viewed in conjunction with the standard and assessment advice forwarded to schools to ensure that valid, credible and reliable assessment and learning has occurred before the standard is awarded. While physical evidence of student work does not need to be attached, the assessor decisions made must also be verified internally before reporting results.
Remote Assessment Matrix
Similar to a piece of work TENZ did during Covid Lockdowns, these subject matrices are a guide to assessment where remote teaching, learning and assessment have to take place due to a significant event leading to closure of schools over an extended period of time. For example, lockdown, natural disaster, etc.
