"Assessment for learning holds great promise to increase learning for all students and throughout school communities, but educators need support and guidance to get the results they seek. These events are designed to foster change in individual classrooms, schools and entire educational systems. We have resources for virtually everyone working to educate students, from individual teachers, right up to system supervisors and directors of education. Our goal is to enable all parts of the system to act in alignment, without which significant change and lasting results will continue to be elusive."
