Art Curriculum

Assessment

Dane Court Grammar School in Broadstairs have worked with ASK to develop a KS3 tracking system to record student progress against national curriculum attainment targets. The record sheets are user friendly and designed to encourage students to monitor their own progress using sublevels. The template for the record sheet and teacher guidance can be copied and adapted to suit your own department.
