Primary Pupil Profile Trials

In the period March 2006 – February 2007 CCEA carried out three trials relating to the Primary Pupil Profile. These were:

  • Key Stage 1&2 Pupil Profile - March/May 2006;
  • Key Stage 1&2 Interactive Computer Assessment System (Reading) - October/November 2006; and
  • Key Stage 1&2 Interactive Computer Assessment System (Mathematics) – February 2007.

Each of these trials was independently evaluated by BDO Stoy Hayward.

These trials provided the opportunity to take views from principals, teachers and parents and informed the development of the Primary Pupil Profile and InCAS.

Comments on the key recommendations from the trial evaluations and copies of the BDO evaluation reports are available for download.
