This assists and is used as a guideline for teachers to help your child in their development areas. It informs us about the knowledge, skills, values and attitudes the learner has obtained (Davin, R.2013:32). By assessing the learner we are able to identify their learning style and allow us to prepare lessons in such a way that is best suitable to your child’s needs.

Our teachers are able to provide exercises or activities to parents to practice at home with the learner thus reiterating what is being taught in the classroom.
The form will be collected and sent to our school social worker who will then send it to the district ELL coordinator.

Students with limited English skills that are addressed through the Response to Intervention process will be identified and an assessment is administered. When the student meets the qualifications they will be serviced by an ESOL teacher.

Therefore, the purpose of assessment in support of planned curriculum is to help build on children’s strengths and weaknesses and aid in continued growth and learning.
