Many teachers spend hours grading, yet grades alone do not always show how students are really learning.

What if assessment could become a tool for growth rather than just measurement?

Join Dr. Katie McKnight for a practical webinar on how formative assessment can help teachers better understand student progress while reducing the pressure of constant grading.

In this session, you will explore:
• The difference between grading for compliance and assessing for growth
• How descriptive feedback can guide student learning
• Practical checks for understanding you can use immediately

This CPD certified webinar is designed for educators looking for strategies they can apply right away.
