Assessments at Royal British International School Yangon

[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]1. Why Assessments?
Royal British International School see Assessment as central to delivering a high quality education. Assessment allows teachers, the school and students themselves to evaluate, recognise and grade student achievements and progress, and allows teachers to evaluate and adapt their teaching and measure how successfully they are delivering the curriculum.
Effective assessment enables students to make smooth progress through school. Royal British International School , use assessment to adapt our curriculum around the needs, capabilities and aspirations of our students, to fulfill the objectives of the short, medium and long term plans (based on the our adopted Educating Future Generations) and to plan and strengthen learning.
A student will be assessed throughout the year, both formally and informally. All student work is marked at Royal British International School and guidance is given to each student on strengths and areas for development.[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”3687″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]2.
