This year we will not be sending paper copies of MAP (Measures of Academic Progress) and ISA (International Schools Assessment) assessments. Instead, both assessments will be uploaded to Powerschool and will be available from Monday 25th May. To access these assessments, go to powerschool.isb.ac.th and log in with your username and password. To open the document use the password in red on the screen once you login. If you experience difficulty with logging in, please contact our Ed Tech department at vinitp@isb.ac.th or trins@isb.ac.th
Please remember that we use many different types of assessments to measure student progress. MAP and ISA are two popular and well researched external assessments but they are broad in nature, they only assess some elements of what students learn here and they are done in different conditions to those the students normally learn in.
Only students in grades 3-9 take the MAP assessment and those in grades 3, 5, 7 and 10 take the ISA assessment.
