A webinar introducing Evisense and it’s features. We have previously gone into great depth when delivering our training webinars. This time we wanted to take a step back and give an overview of Evisense’s features.
We have now completed our Cyber Essentials Certification for the year. Whilst this is broad in its approach, it helps to ensure that even the smallest of companies are thinking about online security and helping to keep themselves secure.

An overview and history behind Autism Progress and the aims of the project, Autism Progress started off as a project between 3 autism charities – Scottish Autism, Autism Wessex and the North East Autism Society. The charities wanted a way to better support pupils and adults with autism and part of this was a better understanding of how someone’s autism affected them.

What is good progress is a question we have been asked a lot over recent years. The removal of Levels and now also P Levels has left schools unsure on the progress pupils with SEND should make. Our webinar below is designed to help schools answer that question.

P-Levels have been used in schools since 1998 to assess the progress of pupils working below the national curriculum level. In May 2018, in response to the Rochford Review, the government released the new pre-key-stage standards for 2018-19, which will replace P-Levels. This webinar covered the changes to the end-of-key-stage statutory assessment.
In 2014, we were told that the National Curriculum level descriptors were bad. Four years on and The STA have finally published the ‘permanent and extended ’ pre-key stage standards.
When choosing a school assessment system, you need to know what your curriculum is and what you want it to become. Your assessment framework is something that should support this, not replace it.
