How do I get started?
- Once you have signed up to LanguageScreen, upload a spreadsheet of pupil names for each class you will be assessing. Our system is safe, GDPR compliant, and meets Local Authority standards.
- Should your schools wish to make parents aware of the screening program, please use our proforma letter to parents. Please do not edit our proforma to an opt-in basis as this will change the legal basis for using our service.
- OxEd will generate a QR code for each pupil. Print off QR codes from our website – one per pupil. You scan these to start an assessment.
- Download LanguageScreen from Apple AppStore or Google PlayStore onto a tablet or smartphone. We recommend an 8-inch tablet or larger.
- Use the Practice QR Code and User Guide to learn all about how to use the App. Our apps are intuitive and easy to use.
- You’re ready to begin an assessment.
How do I conduct an assessment?
- Find a quiet space to complete your one-to-one assessments.
- Launch the app on your tablet or smartphone.
- For each child, use their QR code to launch their assessment.
- Follow the audio and visual instructions in the app to take the child through the assessment.
- The assessments only take 10 minutes to complete per child. They are colourful and fun for the children.
- Sign in to oxedandassessment.com to view the results. Pupils are shown in ranked order with recommendations for who needs extra support.
- Use an accredited intervention such as the Nuffield Early Language Intervention (NELI)
How do I assess a child’s progress?
- After completing your chosen intervention, such as the Nuffield Early Language Intervention (NELI), repeat the assessment.
- For each child, use their QR code to launch their assessment.
- After the assessment, the report will show previous and new results for comparison.
- Repeat each year, if appropriate, to provide ongoing evaluations of children’s learning needs.
