While assessment strategies and instrumentation are often the main interest of measurement specialists, this research is oriented instead towards overall learning assessment management as it is perceived by grades 6, 7 and 8 pupils. The data gathered show that at these grades, pupils can and do participate seriously in this type of study, that they are sensitive to their environment and that they provide an interesting source of information on potential improvement of classroom assessment. Their main concerns deal with the report card in its current form, the importance given to learning difficulties, the timing of assessment and in-class interpersonal relationships.
