Student progress checklist

Downloadable checklists to help you track your students' work during their KS3 science studies.

There is a checklist for each topic within the syllabus, and each checklist provides tick boxes for all the objectives in that topic. The checklists are flexible. Use them to:

  • ensure your lessons are covering the right content
  • track progress through the content
  • check understanding of the content
  • let your students know what's expected of them by the end of each topic.
