Assessment at HVIA
Person responsible: Mrs T Crompton
EYFS- Nursery and Reception
In EYFS we use the National Early Years Foundation Stage Curriculum. This can be found here
In Nursery and Reception classes we track progress of our children using the 'EYFS development matters document'. We use long and short observations and document children's small steps in learning using this.
Our on-going formative assessments are based around the EYFS curriculum. This is the document that HVI academy follow to ensure a broad and balanced curriculum is taught.

Assessment System for the New National Curriculum 2014
With the removal of 'levels' to track a child’s progress, schools are expected to design their own system to track progress. At Hill View Infant School we have a new system for assessing pupil progress and attainment in the new national curriculum.
The system is based around the statutory requirements for each year group as laid out in the programmes of study in the new national curriculum. Instead of assessing against NC levels the system allows assessment of statutory requirements / objectives in reference to particular programmes of study.
The below booklet is aimed at providing the necessary information to parents so that you feel fully aware of your own child’s progress and attainment at our school.

Statutory Assessments:
Children are assessed at different points during their primary school career; these assessments are statutory and are reported to the Department for Education and also to parents. At Kingston Park, we are committed to making these assessments as relaxed and stress-free as possible. Statutory Assessments take place during the Summer Term.
