The existing assessment framework which
ImpaCT2 is a DFES/Becta large-scale longitudinal study focuses on content knowledge via written tests
of ICT and student attainment across the
curriculum:www.becta.org.uk/impact2 does not capture the educational outcomes

School-based Science Practical Assessment (SPA) is
introduced as a skill-based assessment for practical science
which will replace the “O” and “A” level practical
examinations in the near future. For more details, please
