It combines clear data recording with actionable insights, making it easier to identify gaps in learning and plan targeted interventions.
Key features include:

Termly Tracking: Record attainment and progress for each pupil every term, highlighting those Off Track, on Track, or achieving More than Expected Progress.
Closing the Gaps: Identify pupils working Well Below or Towards the Expected Standard and plan specific actions to support them.
Group Analysis: Compare attainment and progress across key groups (girls/boys, SEND, PP, higher attainers) to ensure equity and targeted support.
Action Planning: Provides space to record interventions, teaching adjustments, and strategies for challenging more able pupils.
Integration with Assessment Tools: Designed to complement the Termly Core Subject Assessment Cribsheet (available separately) for consistent and reliable data analysis.
By using this template, schools can efficiently track progress, highlight trends, and make informed, evidence-based decisions to improve outcomes for all pupils. It saves time, supports accountability, and ensures that gaps are addressed proactively.
AQA GCSE Germany 1890-1945: Democracy and Dictatorship
This lesson focuses on Weltpolitik (German foreign policy) and the dangers for the Kaiser faced with increasing industrialisation in the country and his pursuit of creating an Empire abroad so that ‘Germany could have its place in the sun’.
Included in the lesson are a number of sources and charts, links to videos and information on increasing militarism for the students to analyse and evaluate to decide the strength of Germany under the Kaiser and its weakenesses.
Some GCSE exam question practice is included with help given to answer them if required.
The lesson is enquiry based with a key question using a lightbulb posed at the start of the lesson and revisited to show the progress of learning.
The resource includes suggested teaching strategies, retrieval practice, differentiated materials and comes in PowerPoint format if there is a wish to adapt and change.

This document shows the progression of continuous provision from Nursery to Year 2. It matches the EYFS framework and national curriculum objectives covered in each provision area.
This is a highly comprehensive document written as an experienced history subject leader. It outlines the key knowledge and skills taught in each year group for every history unit from EYFS- Year 6. Inline with the most recent Ofsted frame work, this document focuses on the sequential nature of the curriculum, showing clear progression across year groups and coverage of history content taught.
It was written for a school with mixed year group classes on a two year rolling programme and the colour key clearly shows how expectations differ for each year group in terms of vocabulary, knowledge and skills. The document will need to be adapted to suit your school’s individual context, taking into account your units covered on the long term plan and class structures. However, it would provide a very good starting point for any senior or subject leader, faced with the challenge of producing rationales and progression documents of this nature. I have used this document during deep dives in the past and received highly positive feedback from critical professional partners during inspections.
As Art Subject Lead I created this glossary of art terminology/ extended vocabulary list to ensure that the children in my school had a broad range of vocabulary that could be used across the curriculum. I began with Year 1 and, based on National Curriculum progression documents, I compiled a list of vocabulary that the children should see, hear and be encouraged to use. I have added new vocabulary to deepen the children’s understanding and broaden their vocabulary for each year group. This can be seen in green.
This list can be used by:
Subject Leaders as part of progression documents and curriculum for the school.
Teachers as a planning scaffold and an assessment tool to ensure children have a broad art curriculum.
Teachers to deepen their subject knowledge.
Teachers and subject leaders to promote high standards in vocabulary across the curriculum.
To ensure Art is linked to English and reading where possible.
Pupils may find this resource useful as a check list in their sketchbooks at the beginning of each topic.
My school have used this grid this year and we have noticed a great improvement in the children’s understanding of art vocabulary in their speech and through their writing in English.
As a foundation subject lead I created this glossary of art terminology/ extended vocabulary list to ensure that the children in my school had a broad range of vocabulary that could be used across the curriculum. I began with Year 1 and, based on National Curriculum progression documents, I compiled a list of vocabulary that the children should see, hear and be encouraged to use. I have added new vocabulary to deepen the children’s understanding and broaden their vocabulary for each year group. The vocabulary lists are broken into Key Stage 1 and 2 and are progressive showing high frequency words, sight words, vocabulary from the national curriculum and where appropriate, the year group spelling lists. These features are colour coded within the document.

This will be useful for teacher insets, staff development, Masters in Education, PGCE courses.
Attached is a maths subject leader checklist. This checklist is useful for monitoring maths lessons in the school as well as demonstrating progression. It is in-line with the White Rose maths progression document, Development Matters (EYFS section) and the National Curriculum.
The basic aim of the presentation is to view leadership as a life style. Pupils should see in themselves a leader regardless of their race, ethnicity, gender, status.
