Progress file
Progress File was launched nationally, taking over from the National Record of Achievement.
It is a set of interactive materials designed to help young people and adults plan and manage there own learning and develop skills to:
- Reflect upon their strengths and weaknesses
- Review their progress
- Recognise their potential
- Identify realistic goals and targets
- Record their achievements
- Present themselves effectively
The materials available are:
- “Getting started” for students 13 to 14 years old (Key Stage 3)
- “Moving On” for students 14 to 16 years old (Key Stage 4)
- “Widening Horizons" for 16-19 year olds in education and training
Schools should note that the DfES are no longer making hard copy Progress File materials available, as the principles and processes which underpin Progress File are now well established and have been adopted in an increasing range of other products and services.
As the DfES does not prescribe any one particular approach, schools are encouraged to continue applying those principles and processes to their own circumstances, making use of other tools and solutions as appropriate. To help in this transition, the DfES is waiving all copyright in its Progress File materials so that these can be adapted and copied for local use.They can be downloaded at the DCSF progress page.
