Why assessment in English matters
A child who learns, reads and sits examinations in English needs to be assessed in English, against norms drawn from English-speaking populations. Testing such a child in translation produces scores that are hard to interpret, and reports that international schools and awarding bodies cannot rely on.
Dr Bolocan carries out all testing, scoring, interpretation and report writing personally (none of it is delegated), using the most recent editions of well-established psychometric instruments.
