Reframing assessment for multilingual classrooms isn’t about more testing — it’s about interpreting existing evidence differently.

At , Dr Helen Wood, Head of School Partnerships at Password, will share practical ways to use summative writing — from exam or baseline test scripts — to uncover the curriculum-language features that drive subject success.

Pairing classroom evidence with reliable academic English proficiency data gives schools a fairer, more accurate baseline for planning learning.
Looking forward to learning with everyone in Leeds!
