-
Are you happy with your course?

Would this work for you?
ILP Target Setting
You should now have had your initial diagnostic assessments in literacy and numeracy.
Use these with your tutor to set at least one literacy and one numeracy target for you to work on in the next few weeks.
Once you have achieved these you can mark as complete and show your personal tutor.
Can you also add a target about how you could learn better in class and get more out of lessons?
