The APT is the Academic Profiling Test - an AI-driven assessment of learning potential for 8-16 year olds, designed to provide insights into academic progress
And importantly, is only available WITH expert feedback from a former headteacher/learning specialist - who provides insight and next steps. This is the purpose of good assessment, to inform and guide future teaching and learning. Delighted to be working with @TheEngEducation
Why might families might find @apt_online useful to chart the academic progress of their children? This English Education developed tool allows freedom & ability to take control, gain insight, understanding how a child is placed on their education journey
