Before you start
Confirm the workspace, academic year, school curriculum and your responsibility for this change. Have the approved school records available and review existing settings before entering replacements.
Have the school’s approved NaCCA subject reference, active class levels and agreed assessment policy. School leadership must confirm that the workspace is configured for CCP.
