At the Centre for Evaluation and Monitoring (CEM), we believe<br />
good judgement is dependent on good data. Our world-leading<br />
computer-adaptive assessments measure the ability, progress and<br />
potential of students aged 3–19. Our evidence-based systems<br />
allow teachers to understand and respond to educational needs<br />
and follow their students’ progression, from individuals to cohorts,<br />
in schools and colleges in over 70 countries. We provide baseline,<br />
predictive and value-added data for (i)GCSE, A-Level and IB Diploma.<br />
We work to help improve teaching and learning by giving educators<br />
information that guides and validates their judgment about the<br />
abilities and progress of their learners.<br />
