Many schools use our Cambridge Checkpoint tests to assess learners at the end of the lower secondary programme .

The tests are marked by Cambridge International for English as a first or second language, mathematics and science. Cambridge Lower Secondary Checkpoint Global Perspectives learners produce a research report that is assessed by teachers and externally moderated by Cambridge International.

Feedback reports

Schools use the feedback from Cambridge Lower Secondary Checkpoint to make strategic decisions, drawing upon a pool of information and specialist reporting tools that we have built into the tests. You can use the reports to:

• tailor individual learning programmes
• monitor group and individual performance
• compare the performance of all learners taking tests in that session
• manage learning programmes within schools and as learners move between schools.

The test feedback measures a learner’s performance in relation to:

• the Curriculum framework
• their teaching group
• a whole school cohort
• previous years’ learners.

Learner report

The learner report for each individual learner gives a:

• Cambridge Checkpoint score achieved at subject level
• mark achieved at strand and sub-strand/skill level
• Statement of Achievement that shows the subjects and scores achieved.
