Progression tests
Cambridge Primary and Cambridge Lower Secondary Progression Tests are internal assessments designed for use in the classroom. They provide valid assessment of knowledge, skills and understanding in English as a first or second language, mathematics and science.
You can administer Progression Tests at any time in the year, as many times as needed. They are great for tracking and reviewing your learners’ progress over time and will enable you to give structured feedback to learners and provide evidence of learning to parents and school leaders.
The results will provide detailed information about the performance of each of your learners and the understanding of your class overall. They will enable you to compare the strengths and weaknesses of individuals and groups and identify where to focus further teaching.
Cambridge Checkpoint
Many schools use Cambridge Checkpoint to assess learners at the end of the primary and secundary programme.
For English as a first or second language, mathematics and science, the tests are marked in Cambridge.
Cambridge Primary Checkpoint Global Perspectives learners produce a team project that is assessed by teachers and externally moderated by Cambridge International. The feedback report focusses on the performance of the class and moderators decisions.
Feedback reports
Schools use the feedback from Cambridge Lower Secondary Checkpoint to make strategic decisions, drawing upon a pool of information and specialist reporting tools that we have built into the tests.
Learner report
The learner report for each individual learner gives a:
Cambridge Checkpoint score achieved at subject level.
Mark achieved at strand and sub-strand/skill level.
Statement of Achievement that shows the subjects and scores achieved.
Teaching group report
The report for each teaching group (or class) gives:
The average Cambridge Checkpoint score achieved at subject and strand/skill level.
A learner distribution across ranges of scores.
A table of scores in alphabetical order by learner name with candidate number, strand scores and overall subject scores.
A table of learner marks achieved at strand and sub-strand level.
School report
The report at school level gives:
The average Cambridge Checkpoint score for each subject.
The average score for each strand/skill.
The average scores achieved in the past five years
An international average that shows the average score per subject/strand for all schools in the cohort.
End of series report
We also include a Principal’s Examiner report for schools, which provides qualitative information on your students. The report includes types of learner responses and areas where they performed well and common errors made on each part of the exam question.
Whatch this video and let´s talk about it.
Ahoy there!
You will be split into smaller teams working in breakout rooms
You will have 25 minutes to answer as many questions as you can and collect ´treasure´ (answers to questions about CIE)
At the end of the 25 minutes we will come back and share our treasure with a different group
At the end of the activity, copy it and send it to the email: ignacio.castro@aie.theanglo.mx
