Once you have uploaded any documents, click on the “Next” button in the bottom right-hand corner of the screen and you will be taken to the first Domain “Breathing”. When you click on a description the score will be automatically highlighted. You also have the option to add text in the “Brief description of need and source of evidence to support the chosen level” box. There is no limit on the amount of text that can be recorded here.

Once that Domain is completed, click on the “Next” button at the bottom of the page and this will move you on to the next Domain to be completed. Repeat this until you reach the “Equality” page.
