| Abstract: | Education in Papua New Guinea (PNG) has experienced major shifts and changes over the last decade or so under the National
Education Reform. In that context there is recognition for schools to appreciate their local contexts and conditions regarding
assessment. The National Educational Department is also aware of the fact that there is need for some level of control from
the national perspective to ensure a level playing field for assessment. Along with school–based assessment and national assessment
processes, teacher inspections and appraisal, school and curriculum observations and appraisal are also recognized as elemental
in ensuring quality control across the country. This article represents the modes and methods of assessment and quality assurance
in PNG within the context of the current policy debates and policy development on education reform. |
