This is the story of one school's successful journey to a 'life
after levels'. Together, the Headteacher and staff at one
successful school took on the challenge: Where do we begin? What is
the best assessment system for our school and our children? How do
we make the most of assessment opportunities in the classroom? How
do we create an assessment policy from scratch and implement it in
the school? How do we evaluate it, re-shape it and talk about it to
parents, the wider school community and our colleagues in primary
education? Through exploring one school's story, this text supports
teachers and schools in a time of uncertainty, confusion and choice
to make the most of the new opportunity to assess children without
the restrictions of levels. "The removal of Levels has given all
professionals involved in education a unique opportunity to
rediscover what we value in this key aspect of teaching and
learning...and it is an opportunity that we must grab with both
hands. I want this book to provide a time for reflection for
teachers and school leaders to re-adjust their thinking on
assessment and to get excited about it." - Sam Hunter -

The Putting Green Devotional serves as a daily reminder that a life
of significance is achieved through setting the right priorities,
discovering the grace of God, walking in humility, and guarding
one's integrity. Though long-range goals are important, the "short
game" of life is where we discover our deepest happiness and
fulfillment.
