An Excel Spreadsheet where you can store you class information and record all of the primary reporting markers (ATT, BEH, EFF, HWK). The spreadsheet allows the user to select a student to display graphical representations for these primary reporting markers. To support your report writing, the spreadsheet auto-generates a report comment based on each students data information - which can be copied and used, or edited for your needs. Additionally, this resource can be very useful during Parent’s Evenings - providing a visual representation of the students progress, and having the report comments to refer to during the meeting.

Python Programming Home Learning Course Lesson 2 This course is suitable for home study, students unable to attend classes due to sickness or as learning material during school closures. This second lesson begins with a refresher task to review all the skills and programming techniques practiced during Lesson 1. Students are then introduced to more interactive elements of Python Programming including Nested Loops, Random Values, Switch Case Statements, Casting to a String, String Manipulation and how to Collect Data from a User. The lesson is completed with the first Python Programming Challenge. Here students will be required to use the programming skills from the last two lessons to build a working game.

Passwords … It is so important to regularly update and change your password, and schools now require you to include uppercase, lowercase and symbols into a password that can be as long as 30 characters! These are easy to forget and you need to place to store them. Time Consuming … Remembering multiple complex passwords is very difficult - especially if you are using unique alphanumeric strings. What takes the most time is creating the password - not wanting it to be too common or easy to guess but not so difficult that it is impossible to remember. The My Passwords Log Book has a Random Password Generator which will create and record the string, saving you time. All the Applications … There are so many applications that you use as a teacher - the number of times I have not only forgotten the password but also the name of the application is almost embarrassing! With My Passwords Log Book you can store the application name, include a hyperlink taking you directly to the site as well the required password.

The Data worksheet is where you can add students first and last names - in adherence with GDPR these names are edited with a formula to display the first name and initial only - as well as the effort, behaviour and homework scores for each student. The scores are in the 1-4 format where 1 is the highest grade. In addition the students current and target grade are entered to allow the spreadsheet to calculate how much progress they have made towards their target. The Display spreadsheet has a drop-down box with all of the students names. Here you can select a student to view the data as well as a graphical display of their progress. This has been a valuable resource during parents evenings and for 1:1 discussions with students.
