Assessment is an ongoing process of gathering, analysing, reflecting and acting on evidence of student learning to inform teaching. Formative Assessments are ongoing and Summative Assessments are taken at the end of each unit. Grading is based on levels 1-5. Detailed information about assessment at IKNS can be found in the KG and Elementary Assessment Policy.
