Simple tracker, one for Design & Technology and one for Food Prep. & Nutrition. Both are based on the 2018 grade boundaries for Food Prep. & Nutrition, which is the only active data, this can be changes when more results come through in 2019. NEAs are broken down into component parts. Red filled banners self populate when data is entered. The ‘Exam Mark Needed’ column is based roughly on what a student should achieve in the summer exam to achieve a grade 4/5. Mock grades for Year 10 and 11 can be entered but only the Year 11 mock grade is used in the ‘Final grade to date’ column. This grade we are using as the predicted grade. ** It’s not perfect but it works for us.**
