The Headway Skill Reliability Assessment helps us understand how steady your child's math skills really are.
Some students know a skill but can't rely on it yet. Others understand it but struggle under pressure. This assessment looks at both the work your child completes and how they work through it, so we can recommend support that actually fits.
What It Measures
-
Accuracy over a range of skills
-
Strategy clarity

Observable learning behaviors

What It Does Not Do
This assessment does not assign grades, predict future performance, or label a child. It is a snapshot used to guide coaching and instruction.
Results from the Headway Skill Reliability Assessment place students into one of three Skill Stages:
Foundations, Building, or Securing. Each Headway Math Coaching Clinic is aligned to specific reliability patterns identified in the assessment.
