Word cloud display posters for KS3 APP Criteria

A fantastic set of word cloud displays for the KS3 APP criteria.

These would make both informative and attractive displays.

For the best results them on photographic paper for a professional looking display which will retain the depth of colours used.

Otherwise, print on paper and possibly laminate.

KS3 Assessment Calculator

This calculator will calculate a grade based on the units covered and give the average level. It is advisable to deliver as many units as possible in order to ensure coverage of the National Curriculum. However, it gives staff the option of spending more time on certain units e.g. File Management for less able groups and not doing other units especially where the same APP criteria is repeatedly met by one or more units.
 
In summary students will not be penalised for doing less units than planned.
