The Assess4success research project was conducted within a framework provided by the Higher Education Academy Summit programme on inclusive learning and teaching, and sought to explore the extent to which inclusivity, (a high level commitment in the university’s access and teaching policies), was embedded in students’ experiences of assessment. Drawing on internal quantitative data across the institution suggesting specific groups were more likely to struggle with summative assessment in Year 1, and qualitative data exploring sample student experiences in relation to formative assessment tasks, a series of generic recommendations to enhance the inclusivity of assessment practice both in the host institution and across the sector are offered.}, number={1}, journal={Enhancing the Learner Experience in Higher Education}, author={Butcher, John and Sedgwick, Paul and Lazard, Lisa and Hey, Jayne}, year={2010}, month={Oct.}, pages={25–40} }
