The assessment community
Overview
Every year, around 70,000 individuals are involved annually in external examining, moderating and marking Key Stage tests, GCSEs and A-Levels. Add in teachers who mark and internally moderate coursework and conduct regular marking, informal and mock tests, report writing, parents' evenings etc, and the pool expands significantly.
That is the assessment community. And that is whom the Chartered Institute of Educational Assessors has been set up to inform and support.
