Assessment in Primary School 


Assessment at this academic phase is formative and summative, with traditional grades introduced as learners progress. Throughout the Elementary years, assessment focuses on portfolio review, project presentations, regular teacher feedback, and the integration of peer review. As assessment becomes more formalized, educators supplement quantitative grades with qualitative evaluations of skills and competencies. This format ensures students’ progress can be closely monitored, allowing for early intervention when needed.
