Formative assessment tool

The formative assessment tool is an excel spreadsheet that can be filled out with 30 performance descriptors (10 working towards, 10 age related, 10 greater depth) and up to 35 students. Once a student has evidence of a performance descriptor a comment can be entered in the correct column. Each time a new comment of work is added (separated by a comma) the box will change colour, i.e. one piece of evidence is orange, 2 is yellow and three or more is green. The overall column can be colour coded via the drop-down menu to signify WT, ARE or GD. This allows a centralised and easy way to decipher and track student progress.
