ABSTRACT

This chapter focuses on the importance of assessing and monitoring pupils’ social, emotional and behavioural skills and, in the limited space available, looks at three instruments commonly used in the writer’s own country. The components of these tools are described and while these were designed with British children in mind, are likely to have relevance to readers abroad and to overlapwith instruments available in their own countries. First, however, it is necessary tomention a few caveats relevant to assessment and monitoring.
