This guide has been produced by the Scottish Government’s Lifelong Learning Directorate to support practitioners to undertake initial assessment with their learners. Its aim is to help standardise initial assessment approaches, so that the learner can be placed in the appropriate provision.
It is recommended that providers adopt the principles, approaches and ESOL levels within the guide, and adopt or adapt the assessment materials to suit initial assessment procedures within their organisation.
You can browse through the guide or download the entire contents of the Pack (with the exception of the video clips) on the ESOL Scotland website.
