ASSESSMENT

MFL has created a portfolio of assessment resources that perfectly match the needs of our students.  These are part of the DES recommendations of assessment instruments.  Teachers use these assessments to:

v Fulfill the aims of our primary and secondary sections

v Satisfy the requirements of the national strategy to improve Literacy and Numeracy.

v Support special learning difficulties

v Respond to the learning needs to each individual.

National Educational Psychological Service (NEPS)

Each year a senior NEPS Psychologist visits the school.  Her caseload is determined by current need and assessments are carried out based on these needs.  Following consultations, the Psychologist provides further direction to the staff to ensure that the needs of the student are met.
