Formative assessment

Formative assessment shall help to promote learning and develop competence in the subject. The pupils demonstrate and develop competence in English in Years 8, 9 and 10 when they communicate with structure and coherence, both orally and in writing, and adapted to various situations and recipients. They also demonstrate and develop competence when they create different types of texts that incorporate information from sources in a verifiable way.

The teacher shall facilitate for pupil participation and stimulate the desire to learn by using a variety of strategies and learning resources to develop the pupils’ reading skills and oral and writing skills. The pupils shall be given the opportunity to experience that experimenting on their own and with others is part of learning a new language. The teacher and pupils shall engage in dialogue on the pupils’ development in English. With the competence the pupils have demonstrated as the starting point, they shall have the opportunity to express what they believe they have achieved and reflect on their own development in the subject. The teacher shall provide guidance on further learning and adapt the teaching to enable the pupils to use the guidance provided to develop their reading skills, writing skills and oral and digital skills in the subject.

Assessment of coursework

The grade awarded for coursework shall reflect the overall competence of the pupil in English after completing Year 10. The teacher shall plan and facilitate for the pupils to demonstrate their competence in various ways, including through understanding, reflection and critical thought, and in various contexts. The teacher shall assign one grade for the coursework in English based on the pupil’s overall competence in the subject.
