Intervention Tracker to track students in your school or year group or form

(0)
An excel based tracker that enables you to copy and paste students names in and if they belong to any disadvantaged groups. You can then then add details on from reports such as their A2L average, how many subjects off track, progress scores in Literacy and Numeracy or English and Maths. It will just be a case of adding in extra columns. The 1->5 columns are where you add interventions and once added this will change the colour of the names so it is easy to highlight and target key students and key groups.
