Meeting to amend assessments

I would like to invite colleagues to come to Hillside School on Friday, 28th April at 1pm for an afternoon of Access NAB amending.If you share my experience of certain NABs being poorly-written and not meeting students' needs, then come along.

We will take a selection of NABs at Access level; work in pairs or small groups; and produce NABs which we feel would more appropriate (as well as verifiable by SQA Moderators). Those which we are happy with would then be sent to SQA to go through the verification process. A later discussion would take place on further amending, and on how amended NABs may be shared with colleagues.

Lunch will be available.I

f you are unable to attend but would be willing to contribute online and in your own time, then please get in touch.I hope that you will be interested in attending and in sharing your ideas and experience. If so, please confirm your attendance (to noble_d@hillsideschool.co.uk) along with any curriculum areas that you feel we should focus on.
