Class plan details (Long/medium term plans)

Class plan details can be shared with parents and published online. They give an overview of the different aspects of each AoLE covered by the projects that you have chosen. Teachers can embellish their own class plan and, if a plan is being shared by a class, can create their own copy. 

Editing class plan details

Teachers can access their class plans by going to Plan and assess > Class plans > Class plan details (you can also access them via the Cwricwlwm designer) and choosing the relevant class from the dropdown list at the top.  (If you are using cycles, you will need to select a cycle and class plan).
 
The plan will be populated with Cornerstones' default content. The projects should be in the order in which they are being taught across the top, and the AoLEs and other headings down the left.
