Final Decision

Science teachers will adapt explanation assessments to allow students to select the "best" evidence from a range of options rather than writing evidence from scratch. This will remove barriers relating to low writing skills, allowing students to demonstrate their ability to identify supporting evidence. Each science teacher will administer an adapted assessment and bring student work samples to the next PDSA meeting.
