Tracking CAS Progress
Via Year Group > CAS
Under the CAS tile of a year group, you can find functions on the right-hand side to assist with tracking student progress and generating summaries, such as Export to Excel and Generate Reports.
Depending on the width of your screen, these functions might appear at the bottom of the page.
