Description

This information session is Free.

Brightpath is an assessment and reporting software that allows teachers to make reliable judgements of student achievements based on classroom assessment tasks.  It facilitates the efficient and systematic collection of school-wide data to support rigorous analysis, evaluation and planning both of teaching and learning.

Brightpath Software:

  • Tracks student growth over time
  • Compares year level performance
  • Compares school performance
  • Provides teaching points

The software records the results of assessments and reports a range of formative and summative information to teachers and principals.  This provides an informed basis for developing teaching programs targeting the needs of individual students.

Brightpath is based on over a decade of pioneering research at the University of Western Australia.  Join an information session to learn more about Brightpath.
