EYFS Assessment



At Oakfield, ongoing assessment is an integral part of learning and development processes. Staff observe pupils to identify their level of achievement, interests and learning styles. These observations are used to shape future planning and target small steps in learning to ensure all pupils make rapid progress from their initial starting points. Teachers assess each child continuously and carefully, recording each child’s Individual Learning Profile on the School’s tracking system, Insight.
Within the first 6 weeks that a child starts reception, your child will be assessed from their starting points using various assessments;
Statutory Reception Baseline Assessment (RBA).
WELLCOMM (Speech & Language devlepment)
Birth to 5 matters (Early Learning Goals)
At the end of the EYFS, staff complete the EYFS profile for each child. Pupils are assessed against the 17 early learning goals, indicating whether they are:
• Meeting expected levels of development
• Not yet reaching expected levels (‘emerging).
Our INTENT in EYFS is for all pupils to achieve the early learning goals.
