What is progression in Science and Technology?

This clear definition of progression is explicit in that as practitioners, we need to understand and assess the progress of our learners in more than just their knowledge, understanding and skills. The principles of Curriculum for Wales require us to consider the development of all aspects of the learner. As our learners develop depth, breadth and sophistication of their knowledge and understanding, skills and capacities and attributes and dispositions they will make links across their learning and apply this in new and challenging contexts. This is key to enabling them to work towards realising the four purposes, as they progress through their school or settings and into different pathways beyond school.
