Abstract
This chapter comes from an invited keynote address to an international conference organised by Educational Testing Services, USA. It builds on the author’s research over a 10-year period on national curriculum assessment and the impact of a “punitive” accountability testing régime on teachers’ practice and view of their professionalism. The analysis, whilst developed in an English context, has significance for the US scene.
