    Brief

    An Item Bank Data Warehouse application is required to support the development, delivery and governance of statutory National Curriculum Assessments. This web-based database provides secure storage and version control of all assessment questions, items and supporting materials produced during the test development process. The Item Bank captures data and evidence from external expert reviews and school trials conducted over a three-year period, ensuring questions meet quality standards and informing the construction of live assessment tests. The solution must support collaborative test development workflows, maintain comprehensive audit trails, and enable evidence-based decision making for curriculum assessment governance.
