Easy Tips on How EducationCity Can Support You with Assessments

Assessments can often be time-consuming and ineffective at providing us with the data we need. Educators can spend time and resources photocopying teaching materials, only to discard them upon completion

With feedback from many teachers, EducationCity addressed this issue by asking them: What do you want out of an assessment? Do you want to save valuable time and obtain useful resources, data-driven results, and effective data to inform decisions?

EducationCity offers formative and summative assessments across English, maths, and science for children aged 5–11. All of our assessments are marked automatically, and they come with a bookmark feature for those students who may struggle to complete all questions in one sitting. What’s more, following a formative assessment, students are given a Revision Journal filled with resources based upon their incorrect answers so that they can independently start to fill their learning gaps. And, if that wasn’t enough, the data are available to track in the SuccessTracker feature.

Explore what assessments are on offer

Head to EducationCity to see what is available. You can use the Subjects button to view topics by subject and year group or use the assessment tile to look at them all!

Allocate the assessment

One of the many benefits of EducationCity’s assessments is that you can allocate them to a class, group, or individual student! Simply add the assessment of your choice to a folder so that you can choose to set it for the students of your choice.

Choose when to set an assessment

Another benefit of these assessment folders is that you can choose the date to set an assessment and the timeframe of how long your students have to complete it, allowing you to plan ahead!

Have a cup of tea, then view your students’ results

My favourite advantage of EducationCity assessments is that they are all marked automatically. All of the results are available to view immediately in SuccessTracker. You can look at individual responses and overall scores and download all results for whatever you may need.

Reduce, reuse, recycle!

That’s it! That’s everything you need to know about setting up an EducationCity assessment! You’ve reduced the amount of time and resources spent on paper tests. You can reuse the data for tracking, meeting with parents, or making a comparative analysis later on in the year. And you can recycle these assessments by using them as often as you need to!
