How to activate free assessment frameworks for Connecting Steps

Alongside the content schools purchase, we have a range of content that is free for schools who use Connecting Steps. The below frameworks are for schools in England. These frameworks are free for all the pupils you currently have licensed in Connecting Steps.


An administrator for your setting can activate most of the free frameworks from the Assessment Files v5 screen in My BSquared. Scroll to the 'Available Structures' section at the bottom and use the '+' icon next to the framework you would like to use.

Select the blue 'Set default frameworks for your school button' and reset your default framework path.
