KS3 ICT Test Pilot LEA Conferences

On 4 and 7 October 2004, QCA hosted two conferences for KS3 Assessment Co-ordinators, Advisors and KS3 ICT Strategy personnel.

The purpose of the conferences was:

  • to provide information on the new KS3 ICT tests
  • to provide an opportunity for participants to see what the tests are like
  • to disseminate feedback from the 2004 technical pilot and
  • to raise awareness of the national rollout of the project in 2005 and its implications for schools.
