Abstract

Considering assessment, teaching and learning as interconnected processes, teachers must be seen as key actors in school change in order to achieve positive results. This research began in a middle school that decided, starting in the 2023/24 S.Y., to replace grades with narrative feedback. Analysis of focus groups conducted with teachers revealed a change in conceptualisation and statements about practices only among teachers who had been involved in designing the experiment from the outset.
