This evaluation report was produced by IFF Research, working in partnership with Dr. Debs Robinson (University of Derby). It looks at the use of the 7 aspects of engagement as a summative assessment tool at the end of key stages 1 and 2 for pupils who are working below the level of the national curriculum and not involved in subject-specific study. The pilot ran from January to July 2018 and involved 55 primary schools. Read the full study here.
