Internal alternative evidence gathering templates for Psychology

Find templates for alternative ways of gathering evidence for assessment

These templates must only be used to record student achievement and report results where remote assessment is the only practical option and the collection of direct assessment evidence from students has not been at all possible.

‘Alternative evidence’ is student evidence for internally assessed standards that has been seen or heard within the teaching and learning programme. These templates do not signal a reduction in what is accepted for each grade, but rather a means of summarising evidence for reporting.

These templates must be viewed in conjunction with the standard and assessment advice forwarded to schools to ensure that valid, credible and reliable assessment and learning has occurred before the standard is awarded. While physical evidence of student work does not need to be attached, the assessor decisions made must also be verified internally before reporting results.

The Word template is used to record descriptions of evidence for up to 6 students. The Excel spreadsheet is to record large numbers of students.
