Use reporting initially to check how much use your class is making of SCHOLAR
Set some work to be done under test conditions and marked as preparation for NABS and external assessment
Use the reporting facility as part of your tracking and monitoring of pupil progress
Use material which will help pupils develop their skills for particular NABs or other tasks: see the exam preparation area
Make real use of SCHOLAR for differentiation and bi-level classes
