How EP Starter Works

Discover Topics

Within EP you’ll find coverage of most curriculum topics. Each topic contains a curated sequence of lessons and a ‘topic assessment’, all of which translate to sub-strands of the NZC and are aligned to a specific set of outcomes.

Discover Topics

‘Topic assessments’ can be assigned to students. These assessments can be used multiple times as:

  • A diagnostic test to assess readiness for learning
  • A pre and post-test to measure growth
  • A skills snapshot to assess students’ knowledge, supporting overall teacher judgement and enabling immediate intervention

Track and Report on Progress

Downloadable mastery and completion reports allow you to easily track student progress towards curriculum goals. Our ‘compare assessments’ feature also allows you to track and measure growth over time.

Enhance Learning

Now that you have a deeper understanding of every student’s skill level, you can meaningfully utilise the ‘lessons’ within your current topic. EP even provides learning recommendations to surface the most relevant lessons to fill learning gaps. While our assessments can be assigned to individuals, our lessons are designed for in-class teaching to support explicit instruction.
