In the main area of the page you can see all assessments that have been set to be taken in the last two months for all classes you have access to. To the right of the screen, above the assessment listing, is a dropdown box you can use to select a view showing only the assessments set by you.

The links at the top right-hand side are available to all users of the OCR Gateway Science Assessment system – the 'Help' button launches this help file and the 'Log Out' button logs you out and returns you to the main Log-in screen.

Clicking the 'Quick tour' link shows you a walk through of the main parts of the site. As a teacher you can also select to take a Quick tour of the student site.
