The OxEd Assessment Bundle

Digital assessment and instant reports for oral language and reading

Consisting of the evidence-backed LanguageScreen and ReadingScreen assessment apps, the OxEd Assessment Bundle enables schools to quickly, easily and accurately assess oral language and reading abilities of students in Foundation to Year 6.

Instant digital reports empower teachers with reliable insights at an individual and whole-class level, including a Simple View of Reading report, which accurately identifies students needing support with word reading (decoding), language comprehension or both. These reports can also be used to track progress over time, providing teachers, schools, families and learners with clarity on the impact of intervention.

"Our teachers feel rewarded when they see the LanguageScreen assessment results showing the positive impact their efforts with explicit instruction and best-practice pedagogies are having on their students."

GETTING STARTED

Three steps to empower teaching with reliable assessment insights

When it comes to intervention, every day counts

1. Assess: Teachers or Teacher Aides use the evidence-backed LanguageScreen and ReadingScreen digital apps to reliably assess students in as little as 10-minutes each with no paper marking or analysis needed.

2. Identify: Review the accurate, easy-to-interpret digital reports that are instantly created in your school’s digital account following assessment and identify students requiring intervention.

3. Support: Make timely, data-informed decisions with confidence, utilising accurate insights to plan intervention and class placements, and to help families and colleagues understand each student's needs.

Hear from Jenny Baker

Director of Fremantle Speech Pathology

"Oral language is fundamental for communication and plays a crucial role in a child's development. It provides the foundation for literacy, social interaction and academic success.

Children with delayed language may also experience difficulties in social situations, impacting their relationships and mental health.

Early intervention and support for oral language development is essential to prevent these potential consequences and ensure children reach their full potential."
