The Assessment for Learning Framework

The Assessment for Learning (AfL) Framework focuses on using ongoing assessments to improve student understanding and guide teaching. Rather than just testing at the end, teachers regularly check how students are doing, providing feedback and adjusting instruction accordingly. This approach encourages active student participation, helping learners understand their progress, set goals, and identify areas for improvement. The goal is to make assessment a helpful, supportive process that promotes continuous learning and development, rather than solely measuring achievement.
