Monthly Poll - Turning-point in Education
This page will contain all the information you need to take part in our monthly poll. The topics will include both current issues, such as examinations in the exam season, as well as issues relating to more fundamental concerns, such as teacher assessment and its role in public exams.
Your responses will be used to present media campaigns as well as provide the CIEA with information to answer questions by ministers, or to present arguments to ministers.
Your responses will be anonymous, but will provide important information for the CIEA to use publicly
Here you will find the results of our monthly poll presented in pie-chart format, showing the percentage of people who responded in a particular way to each question. You can then judge how the rest of the assessment community thought about the issues, compared to your own views. This month's poll looked at whether we are at a turning-point in the way educational perfromance is assessed. The results can be found below:
Question 1: Do you believe we are at a turning-point with regards to the way educational performance is assessed?
| No (%) | Yes (%) |
|---|---|
| 28 | 72 |
Question 2: Do you think enough is being done to effect the changes needed as highlighted by the published reports?
| No (%) | Yes (%) |
