520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. |
Summary, etc. |
Professionals working in educational settings are required to administer, score and interpret tests. They also receive reports based upon test information from among others, educational and clinical psychologists. However, there are few opportunities to learn about the range of tests used, what they measure, and their technical adequacy, outside of professional training courses, usually in psychology. This book is written for those who wish to remedy this by undertaking training for the British Psychological Society's Certificate of Competence in Educational Testing (CCET) (Level A) (BPS, 2004a), but will be of interest to anyone who is a stakeholder in good practice in the use of tests in education. This will include Special Needs Coordinators (SENCOs), those with a responsibility for test use in educational settings, careers guidance teachers, others involved in special needs assessments and in additional support planning, and educational administrators, as well as parents. |
