A practice and assessment add-on for the Malware, Updates and Backups lesson pack: 10 differentiated worksheets at three levels with answer keys, two parallel 22-question quizzes with a mark scheme, a one-page learner progress tracker and an optional group record. For learners aged 14+, FE groups, adult learners and staff training. Use it for practice, homework, cover work, intervention or to measure progress.

The worksheets and quiz questions are new: they are different from the main pack’s worksheets and quiz, so the two packs can be used together without repetition. All people, pop-ups and messages are fictional.

WHAT’S INCLUDED (22 A4 pages)
• 4 Support worksheets (DOCX and PDF): malware flashcards, update sorting, protection traffic lights, backup or not?
• 3 Core worksheets (DOCX and PDF): pop-up dilemmas, update advice, improve a backup plan.
• 3 Stretch worksheets (DOCX and PDF): a community-club ransomware brief, risk ranking, a teach-back script.
• Answer keys and model answers for all 10 worksheets (DOCX and PDF).
• Quiz versions A and B (DOCX and PDF): 22 different questions each, in parallel.
• Mark scheme (DOCX and PDF): answers, marks and short explanations.
• One-page learner progress tracker and optional group record (DOCX and PDF).
• Contents page and read me (PDF).

WHAT LEARNERS WILL PRACTISE
• Naming common types of malware and how they often get in.
• Telling official updates from fake pop-ups, links and cold callers.
• Using built-in protection such as Microsoft Defender and Google Play Protect.
• Improving a backup plan using the 3-2-1 idea, and testing a restore.
• Calm first steps if something looks wrong, why not to pay a ransom, and where to report in each UK nation.

HOW TO USE IT
