All pupils will progress up the ability scale through use of differentiated worksheets. Pupils will develop vital skills through the inclusion of a 'Basic Skills' worksheet for each topic, covering grammar, word origin and presentational information. Pupils will be motivated through keeping portfolios of their own work and completing their own assessment sheets. Teachers can be sure they meet National Curriculum requirements as worksheets revise and reinforce the Key Elements required. Notes for teachers match specific worksheets to specific Key Elements. Teachers will save time on administration through the provision of graded and coded activities. The worksheets can either be photocopied or adapted as required.
