Inclusive assessment refers to assessment that ‘takes into account the needs of all learners, ensuring that they all take part in the assessment procedures and that the learning activities planned as a result are appropriate to each individual’ (Kefallinou and Donnelly, 2016, p. 210). Inclusive assessment is not a new or different set of techniques, but a different way of using assessment to support teaching and learning for all learners.
