  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. This is a fantastic report. However it includes those children that are JUST AT - the yellows and includes them in GLD %. Surely it would be more realistic to just include the securely 'Expected'?

  5. 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.

  7. 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.

  9. It would be helpful to have report PDFs in portrait and not just landscape. This could make the length of reports shorter and easier to read.

  10. 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.

  11. We were wondering if sonar can generate any reports around which children haven't met particular formative statements yet, as this would be useful for interventions. For example, any children who were red on a particular formative statement (like adding 3 one digit numbers) would be shown on a report displaying information for all the year group's classes. Then we could run an intervention to plug that gap for those specific children.

  13. 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.

  14. This would allow you to filter the observations by pupil and then print them all off to attach to end of year reports or use as hard evidence for referrals etc.

  15. 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.

  16. Could a filter/toggle be added to the Statutory dashboard to enable us to look at previous years outcomes, and potentially view data from previous years alongside this years etc- to enable us to see (hopefully) progression in outcomes over time.

  17. As a growing school, we are still taking admissions; as a result, for Term 3 we had over 30 students join us, and adding them manually is not practical.
    Therefore, we request to have import data option

  18. To be able to choose what to regard as 'At'. Schools that use our default code model where Just At and At are treated as At in this report would find it useful to be able to show securely at and above only, either as a comparison or instead of including Just At.

    The Venn Report allows the metric to be changed so something similar here would be useful.

  19. School suggestion to have a table report that gives the current term attainment for all subjects.

    It would look similar to the data entry screen, but easier to see everything on one page - plus exportable if required

  20. Ability to sort by surname not forename in reports. I am so surprised this functionality is not already there. In order of forename is simply not practical in year groups with 90 children. There is not even the workaround to export to excel as it is PDF only.
