	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 15/01/2019 answer text <p>The National Foundation for Education Research (NFER) are working with the department to develop and deliver the reception baseline assessment (RBA). NFER have been developing assessments for over 70 years, and all aspects of the RBA design are informed by an evidence base of early years research. As we move forward with the development and piloting of the assessment, the department will continue to work very closely with the sector to ensure we get the experience right for pupils.</p><p>The department is confident that the assessment will not be stressful or upsetting for children. It will be teacher-mediated and carried out one-to-one with the child using age-appropriate resources that they can handle and manipulate, lasting around 20 minutes. It will be similar to the on-entry assessments that schools already carry out in the reception year.</p> answering member constituency Stratford-on-Avon answering member printed Nadhim Zahawi question first answered 15/01/2019 17:11:26 answering member 4113 label Biography information for Nadhim Zahawi
