Some teacher's mark books can be rather battered and worn by the end of the year, with crossings out, late additions, personal comments and so on; consequently most teachers keep their mark books safe and secret. Using a laptop or desktop, record all your students' marks in the Threshold Mark Book however, and you can proudly show senior staff, colleagues and parents how your students are making progress, why you have awarded grades in reports, and why you deserve to go through the threshold.
The Threshold Mark Book could not be simpler. Type in your students' names, then their grades in numerical form, and the Threshold Mark Book does the rest for you. It works out each student's average grade, and as you fill in other students' marks, it automatically calculates the class average, and here's the really useful part, it compares each student's average with the class average and picks out the difference in red if the figure is below, in black if it is above. Specially formulated for easy printing, hand your spreadsheets to your threshold assessor as statistical evidence of pupil progress. Take the mark book on your laptop to parents' evenings and show clear evidence of why you have awarded specific report grades.
Look organised, present your evidence, and your case is much stronger! The Threshold Mark Book, an invaluable tool for all teachers. You will need a Mac or PC and Microsoft Excel to utilise Threshold Mark Book.
