Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Pre-assessment is a type of formative assessment that occurs before a unit of study begins. Whether formal or informal, pre-assessments are never graded. They are purely diagnostic in nature. When pre-assessing for readiness, for. example, teachers attempt to find out.

Detailed explanation-2: -It is also used for reporting to parents and pupils. One good way to remember the difference between formative and summative assessments is that whilst a summative assessment can be seen as an ‘assessment of learning’, a formative assessment can be seen as an ‘assessment for learning’.
