This MS Excel tracking system is a great way to monitor the progress of your ECDL learners. Easily keep track of which students have passed, how many tests they have attempted as well as overall analysis of how your groups are doing. With automatic grade calculation, shared workbook facility to allow multiple invigilators to enter grades, this is a 'must have' if you are running ECDL at your centre. This ECDL tracker is also a great way to have an instant snapshot of how large cohorts in particular are doing.

If like me you feel that the new computer science national curriculum needs a bit more of a common sense approach, have a look at the standards towers that we now use across our curriculum. These dovetail into the new 9-1 KS4 Qualifications and provide a joined up thinking approach to the new changes. These pupil friendly targets help students to know what they need to do in order to reach the next grade. These have been printed out as large displays within all of our classrooms and laminated. These also fit in nicely with report statements which can be purchased separately and link to the standards.
