QCA Scheme of Work or Themed Approach?

Examples of work with commentary on ICT levels

The short studies, indicated on the side panel, are based on the original QCA scheme of work, and are intended to complement the QCA exemplification materials at NCAction. The studies present examples of children's work, with details of the learning context. They include commentaries on achievement, informed by NC level descriptors and the 'stepping stones' to Early Learning Goals.

The original Assessment Recording Grids based on QCA are still available.

The Themed Approach to ICT (More details can be found here)

		Kent Themed ICT Tracking Tool
		This approach to ICT supports a more Creative Curriculum where ICT is embedded in subject teaching. This new set of tracking tools, based on 5 themes of Data Handling, Research, Control, Modelling, and Communication is being used and adapted by ICT subject leaders in many Kent schools
