to complete.
Do teachers need to help 
administer the assessment?
No, Westat TIMSS staff will visit the school on the 
day of the assessment, bringing with them all the 
materials required. The Westat TIMSS staff will 
administer the assessments to students.

second class assessed in the afternoon. 
What will happen with the collected data?
The field test data will be used to evaluate how the

the information you provide may only be used for 
statistical purposes and may not be disclosed, or used, 
in identifiable form for any other purpose except as

Reports of the findings from the assessment will not 
identify participating districts, schools, students, or 
individual staff. Individual responses will be combined 
with those of other participants to produce summary 
statistics and reports.
