Note to users: Self Assessment Grids

The Purpose of the Self Assessment grid has been developed to facilitate learners and teachers in tracking progress against curricular objectives whilst following the OLA Modern Languages programme. The learners can complete the record as he/she moves through the programme and the document can be signed by both learner and teacher as a statement of what they have achieved.

The completion of the grid is recommended but is optional and does not form part of the formal assessment of OLA.
