Formative assessments can be completed on a student as they progress through their learning, completing a formative assessment will provide feedback on how a student has made progression if at all and it will also demonstrate, which are the best methods of learning, the learner can then look at this with a teacher and discuss their options maybe looking at alterations that you can make, it also allows for the student
