4. FORMATIVE AND SUMATIVE ASSESSMENT
FORMATIVE ASSESSMENT
Teachers identify weaknesses and strengths, so that they can
analyse progress towards objectives. This assessment helps to
resolve confusions and concerns based on the students' different
subjects.
Any assessment that informs teachers and students about strengths and areas
for growth.

occasions a priority since it assigns a qualification that will indicate whether the
student passes or fails.
This evaluation is composed of contents that have been previously revised in the
formative area.End of unit or end of cluster learning goals assessments
Used to make final judgment about student learning.
Is reflected in the final level of performance for a standard.
5. T-SCORES
SCALED SCORES
Scores ranging from 1 to 9 on the
standard nine scale, with 5
indicating the average
performance level for most norm-
referenced tests.
These scores derive from various
subtests, forming a
comprehensive composite score
reflecting diverse assessed skills
and areas.
Reporting formats
Z-SCORES STANINE SCORE
PERCENTILES
Percentiles group students'
performance for comparison, with
the 50th percentile indicating
performance equal to half of
students in the same age group.
Range from -4 to 4, with higher
scores indicating above-average
performance, lower scores
representing below average, and
zero as the core average. These scores fall within intervals
from 10 to 90 points, with an
average set at fifty, typically found
between 40 and 60 on the scale.
Final phase of standardized
assessment with formal, clear,
and objective results.
6. READING TEST

challenges, such as
grammatical correctness,
appropriate vocabulary
choice and
comprehension of
complex texts.
