formative - assessment for learning which informs planning...
summative - assessment of learning at a point in time...
'The eyfs profile is a summative assessment which is a statutory requirement at the end of the Early Years Foundation Stage...'
'Ongoing formative assessment based on and adapting to observations helps children to learn'.
I just read it in 'Supporting every child's learning across the eyfs' pg 34, Vicky Hutchin, (2007) Hodder Murray if you want to quote it. :reading:
You'd think this far into an OU course I'd be able to do references better than that! Sorry! :blush:
