Welcome to the Rethinking Assessment Practice Network!

New for 2025-26! The RA Practice Network is free for all schools and colleges and provides access to a programme of online events throughout the academic year, designed for teachers, lecturers, leaders and practitioners who want to explore what is possible in the world of assessment.

Our aim is to convene a space for inspirational big picture thinking, together with practical support and strategies to build staff confidence and understanding.


This session: 21st October, online 4-5pm

Dr Sladana Krstic Senior Research Fellow, Australian Council for Educational Research UK

'Can we assess Creative Thinking in schools?'

As part of the Network’s strand on assessment of skills and dispositions, Dr Sladana Krstic Senior Research Fellow, will share ACER UK’s work on the teaching and assessment of creative thinking in KS2 and KS3 curriculum subjects, and explore different methods for assessing and supporting the development of skills progression. Recordings will only be sent to those who attend, as space is limited.


What is the network? Sponsored by AQA, the RA Practice Network offers a curated programme of expert voices on assessment methods, assessment design for skills, and AI in assessment, together with teachers and school leaders sharing the current working projects.


How does it work?

  • Book on to any of the free online sessions to access 30 mins expert input
  • You can stay on the call for the following discussion and Q&A, to connect with like-minded schools/colleges and colleagues to consider how to develop the work further in your context.
  • NB any sales materials from commercial attendees in the chat is prohibited. This is a space for thinking, discussion and sharing work-in-progress for sector practitioners.
