Pearson Progression tools allows quick and easy formative assessment of student progress, linked to guidance on how to personalize learning solutions, helping students make the best progress they can.
The embedded transferrable skills that are needed for progression into higher education and employment, are explicitly signposted allowing students to understand, and engage with, the skills they’re gaining.
