Welcome back! In this episode, we discuss a topic that gets a lot of attention – assessment for learning. After a short intro of what it is and why it is important, we dive into top tips, examples and advice to help both new and experienced teachers.   

Our host this week is Tamsin Hart. She is joined by some new and familiar faces/voices. Returning from series 1, we have Mark Winterbottom. Mark is a Senior Lecturer in Science Education at the Faculty of Education, University of Cambridge. He is joined by two new guests. Sarah Talbot-Joyce is Education Manager for Teaching and Learning, and Melise Camargo is Training Materials Manager, both from Cambridge Assessment International Education.
