End of KS2 writing assessment grids 2018

Based on the checklists used by KS2 writing moderators, your Year 6 children can self-assess as they write, to all the items from the assessment criteria required to meet the standards at the end of year 6.

This spreadsheet grid includes Working Towards / Expected / Working Above the expected standard, and you can split the grid to print one, two or all three depending on the target range for an individual child. Each statement is numbered, reducing workload when setting one or more of them as a target. Everything your year 6 children need to check they are meeting the 2018 standards, and all in unlocked Excel spreadsheets so they are fully customisable (add school logo, class name, etc).

The grids can be printed A4 or A3, one or two-sided; I’ve also added the year 3/4 and year 5/6 spelling word lists as referred to in the sheets.

Also in this bundle is an incredibly useful ‘Summary of Evidence’ sheet, with the same numbering system as the self-assessment sheets. This makes it quick and easy to evidence which of the standards are met in a piece of writing, and identify patterns of gaps to address / fill before the end of June.

The KS2 moderator who visited me last year loved this approach, and asked if she could take a set to share with her colleagues.
