This tracking document for the new T Level in Management and Administration, specifically for Core Content 1. Business Context. It has been designed to be used in two different ways - although is fully editable so you can adapt it for your own needs. It can be used by individual students to track and monitor their own progress against the learning outcomes and knowledge they must have for core area 1. Business Context. At regular intervals, students would be encouraged and given time to reflect on their learning (to date) and RAG rate their own levels of confidence; Green - secure, Amber - in progress, Red - priority revision areas/areas of difficulty. The other way this resource could be used is as evidence of formative assessment either through; mini-tests, knowledge quizzes, starter questions, or student conversation. Having data on the performance of a whole cohort will identify areas to return to for revision to support and secure learning in areas that show up as less embedded.
