SATurated models of pupildom: Assessment and inclusion/exclusion

Abstract: Adopting a sociocultural theoretical framework and based on ethnographic data from two primary schools, this article seeks to answer the question: what meanings about inclusion and exclusion are encoded in school and classroom practices? It documents the (inclusionary and) exclusionary pedagogic processes that influence learning and children's participation in the learning opportunities on offer to them. From their analysis of observational, interview and documentary data, externally‐imposed and monitored regi… Show more

“…A pertinent finding from the balance of evidence in the current study was that lower primary school students already had quite a lot of negative perceptions and experiences of assessment. The early years' reporting of test pressure marks a difference between our research and literature reviewed earlier, for example, studies at the end of primary schooling (Reay and Wiliam 1999;Hall et al 2004). A niche for our work is in this reporting of student perceptions of test pressure in the lower primary school; few studies have documented this phenomenon with this age group, although in their analysis of self-esteem Davies and Brember (1998) discussed analogous issues.…”

“…The main negative messages from the data were that a number of students experienced pressure or anxiety in relation to assessment reinforcing similar messages from research in England (e.g. Hall et al 2004). It seemed that in comparison with research in Anglophone contexts, our data highlighted more prominently the active involvement of parents in exhorting their offspring to study hard.…”

“…This may be explained by the prevalence of measurement/assessment strategies schools deploy which can result in significant withdrawal by various students (Hall, Collins, Benjamin, Nind, & Sheehy, 2004). This strategy of withdrawal may also be caused by fear of assessment, fear of failure, feelings of insecurity and teacher expectations that the student might find threatening (Collins, 1998).…”
