Description
This qualitative instrumental case study analyzed the manifestations of teacher agency through one complete cycle of a School-Based Assessment (SBA) practice of English in a primary school in Indonesia. Through an ecological approach, this study indicates that agency is influenced by teachers’ past experiences, perspectives and beliefs, and the school’s cultural, structural, and material conditions; some of which are enabling and constraining teacher agency. A problematic relationship between agency and sound language assessment in terms of validity, reliability and fairness was revealed. Actions to be taken by national policy makers, the school, the SBA practitioners, and teacher educators are recommended.
