Personal Development Transitions Quiz Trial
Tuesday 19th September 2023
We are looking for up to 10 Wiltshire primary schools to trial a new Personal Development Transitions Quiz produced by 1decision.
For the trial we would like schools to use the tool with Year 6 pupils this term, which will take about 45 minutes. There may be an opportunity to retest pupils at a later date.
More information about the software can be found below and in the document provided, which also contains a few screenshots.
Please email nick.bolton@wiltshire.gov.uk if your school would be interested in the trial.
This new software provides schools with the ability to quickly assess and gather data on their pupils’ knowledge when it comes to areas of Personal Development. This will help with identifying knowledge, and any potential gaps.
We suggest the quiz is initially taken by pupils either at the end of year 5, or at the beginning of year 6 (we even have schools using the software in year 7 to help identify their new pupils’ knowledge).
The quiz provides a sequence of multiple-choice questions which cover 12 areas of Personal Development, closely linked to PSHE and RSHE.
Once a pupil has completed and submitted their choices, teachers can assess data and adjust focus for PSHE lessons, assemblies, etc. This will help provide staff with the reassurance that pupils are fully prepared for their transition to secondary education.
This software provides your school with year-by-year data and allows you to retest pupils to evidence where you are closing any gaps.
More details about the sofware, with screenshots, can be found here.
