Assessment Profile 2018
In our school mission statement, we acknowledge that we aim to provide a happy, secure, appealing and effective learning environment in which each child will become numerate, literate, curious and caring. All staff, parents and students in Kiltiernan National School are proud of our high standards of academic achievement.
We use the Drumcondra English, Mathematica and Spelling Tests every year, from First Class to Sixth Class, as an assessment guide, so that our high standards of teaching and learning are maintained.
By analysing our school test results and comparing them to national norms, we can see where we are doing well and see where we could work on where necessary.
