What is Cambridge Primary Insight?

Cambridge Primary Insight is the next generation in primary assessment from Cambridge CEM, empowering teachers to build a strong foundation and unlock their students’ potential.

Cambridge Primary Insight is here to:

  • Benchmark what your students’ levels of ability are when you start working with them.
  • Highlight any hidden talent or undiscovered strengths.
  • Suggest where additional support is needed.
  • Give you the opportunity to tailor your teaching, using personalised reports.
  • Offer an objective measurement that helps you compare/track children’s progress and prepare them for long-term success.

What does Cambridge Primary Insight assess?

Students are assessed in these five key developmental areas which research shows are linked to later academic outcomes:

  • Reading (word recognition, decoding, and comprehension)
  • Spelling
  • Mathematics (includes counting, arithmetic, fractions, patterns, algebra, measures, shape and space, and data handling)
  • Mental Arithmetic (addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division)
  • Developed Ability (picture vocabulary and non-verbal reasoning)

Unlock potential by giving students a personalised, and rewarding experience. The adaptive programming tailors the questions to each individual’s ability.

Saves Time

Fast-forward that ‘getting to know you’ time, so you can quickly get to grips with what your students do and don’t know and focus on what they need to flourish. No paperwork or marking required.

Flexible and Fun

Assess once at any time during the year. The five short modules are fun and interactive.

Student-led

Each student completes the assessment independently, so it can be carried out with multiple students during one or more normal lessons.

"We use InCAS (now evolved into Cambridge Primary Insight) data to inform planning, set aspirational targets and give parents a picture of how their children are performing amongst a large, diverse cohort, rather than just amongst a class or year group."
