  1. On Target Tracker, data could be reorganised by more able to less able rather than just by forename/surname

  2. At the moment the Teacher Comments, Headteacher Comments and Pupil Comments sections are included in the report template by default, even if you choose the basic grid version of the template. It would be helpful to have the option to include or exclude these sections when setting up the report template.

  3. Contextual Grid to view information about pupils like we could in Target Tracker.
    Requested by customer who found this invaluable daily for finding information about pupils in one place which could be exported and printed.

  4. Schools can set multiple different thresholds for their test scores, so it can correlate more closely with their summative model. For example, if their summative model has 4 or 5 levels it would be good that the test scores and associated report in ARO also splits the test score data into 4 or 5 respectively. At the moment the test scores is just Below, At or Above. e.g. in a test with range 80-120, schools might state that 80-90 is below, 90-103 is just at, 103-109 securely at and 110+ is above.

  5. Dissapointed to see that there was no way to see the parcentage of children target at the end of summer for different attainment levels. For instance, as we now set targets at the start of the year, I really could do with seeing what percentage of children have been targetted for B,JA,A etc at different cohort levels such as class, year group, key stage etc.

  6. Former OTrack customers often ask for a Sonar version of the Attainment and Progress Summary which had 3 subjects and a combined column on one page. This report is a Termly context Group report and for each subject it shows the attainment percentages for Below, At & Above next to the Termly Target (progress) %'s Below, At, Above. The Termly Targets can be changed to Progress from Previous Summer for those who don't use Targets. It is often used for progress meetings and governors.

  7. It would be helpful if a school could print multiple subjects at a time instead of having to generate a report for each subject.
    Helen from Phoenix Primary has requested this and I can see the advantages of this for time saving within school.

  8. Schools using the Ages Assessment feature would benefit from their Ages data being available within the Single Pupil Overview report as is Summative and Test Scores data. Or the creation of a new Ages Flight Path report where they can see the Ages data over time.

  9. It would be beneficial if you could make all of your selections / deselections in one go without having to repeatedly click in the menu to make it drop down, then select / deselect.

  10. REAch2 currently track projections within OTrack (as distinct from targets). They use an extra 'term' to record these projections. They appear on reports such as the in-year attainment overview and allow heads and MAT leaders to see the proportion of children projected to meet age-related expectations.

    They also record end of year targets separately in OTrack, separate from projections.

  15. We're a school moving from INSIGHT. One of the things that we find invaluable on INSIGHT is the assessment view of a child, where you can see all the summative assessments of subjects as well as test scores and the % secured to date of formative objectives for each year on one page. It would be great to get this in SONAR as it is a great, easy to glance at history of assessment of pupils throughout the year.

  17. This would allow you to select a specific pupil and see all the observations they have been tagged with in a print-friendly view that would be suitable for a range of audiences.

  18. The ability to highlight pupils' names to identify them as (for example) PP, EAL, SEN etc.
    This provides a quick and clear way to show how these key groups are distributed across attainment and progress tables. It is particularly effective when used without names for governors' reports.
    We have this function in Target Tracker where names can be in bold, underlined or in italics.

  19. End of Key Stage reports allow schools to see overall numbers and percentages, pupils' names and to view in Summary mode. There is no equivalent report for Phonics or MTC which schools need.
    Although the Analysis tab gives headline data, no detail such as pupils names or context can be seen.

  20. When you have flood filled, particularly formative data, if you have made a mistake it would be useful to be able to 'undo' this and put the assessment back to how it was.
