This concept paper examines primary school English teachers' understanding and skills in applying classroom assessment during teaching and learning. Classroom assessment is an important approach for assessing students' overall progress. Although the majority of instructors understand the goal of Classroom Assessment, there are other components, such as ideas and objectives, that require further improvement in terms of teacher knowledge. Furthermore, teachers are skilled at developing formative and self-assessment tools, but less so at structuring instructional content based on Classroom Assessment and selecting acceptable student characteristics. As a result, instructors must receive adequate skill training and exposure in order to increase their understanding and skills in classroom application.
