The Welsh Government’s personalised online assessments are adaptive digital assessments undertaken by all pupils from Year 2 to Year 9 in Reading, Numeracy (Procedural) and Numeracy (Reasoning). The assessments automatically adjust the difficulty of questions based on each pupil’s responses, providing an accurate picture of their current attainment while identifying individual strengths and areas for development. Pupils are required to complete each assessment at least once during the academic year. At St. Julian’s Primary School, pupils typically complete their personalised assessments during June, allowing teachers to use the outcomes to inform transition arrangements and future learning.
Following each assessment, teachers can view diagnostic reports showing each pupil’s overall attainment, progress over time, and specific strengths and areas for development in reading and numeracy. Parents and carers can also access their child’s assessment reports online by logging into their child’s Hwb account (please speak to your child’s class teacher if you need support accessing these reports). These reports provide information about your child’s learning and are used alongside day-to-day teacher assessment to help plan the next steps in their education.
