    It is important that assessment processes and procedures in ITE (Inclusive Teaching Education) are coherent, using a variety of assessment modes, for formative as well as summative purposes (Teaching Council, 2011a). The European Commission (2014) notes that prospective teachers are often assessed using portfolios, which might prepare them to use this type of assessment in their teaching. Literature Review 25 The Agency’s TE4I report noted the need for assessment in ITE to change in line with more active teaching methods. It stressed that across both academic assignments and school practice there is a need for: ‘assessment for learning’ approaches that encourage student/teachers to reflect on their own work and performance and […] formulate their own targets for improvement (European Agency, 2011a, p. 23). It also noted the importance of guided reflection and teacher educators developing knowledge of students’ understanding to provide appropriate challenges together with good models of inclusive assessment practice. Echeita (2014) mentions that at a national or regional level, it is also necessary to set out clear standards for graduating student/teachers, allowing them to monitor whether they have correctly learned the competences related to inclusive education.
