RESULTS page and the first PUPIL REPORT.

grade or level you should alter the count box in the SUMMARY sheet.
You can do this by changing the text as you would in word and then
altering the formula in
the counter cells.
(Change the last value
to the grade you wish to
count.)
Remember if you had to switch off the protection, then you will
need to turn it back on.
