  1. It would be really good if we could filter the statements by TAF or ability level (WTS/EXS/GDS).

  2. Options to 1) select R, W, M together 2) separate year groups - as you can in OTrack's 'In Year Attainment Overview'.

    Feedback from school migration meeting - 'why is there no display options button on the Subject Overview? I like to choose the Core subjects and then split into six year groups - this is all in one report -'In Year Attainment'- in OTrack. To do this is Sonar, I would currently have to generate 18 reports! This essential for a small school like ours. The Age Related Overview does not show the 'flight path' of the last 7…

  4. At the moment you can tag areas of the EYFS curriculum but it would be really helpful if you could also tag what COEL the children are developing in their observation too.

  7. This option on Target Tracker was invaluable for subject leaders and showed gaps in learning, thus identifying areas to be addressed

  8. It would be useful to run an EYFS formative report that just shows 4-5 data and not 4-5 plus ELG data. For example, when I look at PSED data, it shows me it for 22 objectives which would be 4-5 plus ELG whereas I just want to look at the 13 PSED objectives in 4-5 range.

  10. Teachers need to be able to see previous data to be able to set new targets. This is not viewable on the target input screen. This is vital.

  11. Can we relabel 'Primary Formative' and 'Primary Summative' in recognition of the non-primary settings we have in Sonar? A number of schools have mentioned this to me, eg Marland Residential School, who are using KS3 in Sonar and the staff are finding it confusing.

  12. Display Options should include 'names' so that all pupil names can be added to the report for downloading/printing. At the moment, it's only possible to see pupil names by clicking on each individual cell

  13. In OTrack when selecting the School Icon users can then drill down to see names in each of the Contextual Groups in the Pupils Box ie Pupil Premium. Users would like this facility in Sonar.

  14. In Target Tracker, it was an option to edit wha tyou want to see in the summary view. At the minute there is a lot of informaiton and it would be good to select which to get rid of (For example, we dont need to see any of the 'NOT' categories.

    Also the Sig below and Sig Above columns are empty - so it would be good to get rid of those.

  15. Lefthand menu to be able to collapse to the side or when zoom in page to shrink to just the icons as before. This will give users more space on the main screen to do assessments and reports, especially when looking at the analysis tab the working space becomes quite narrow and you have to scroll across a fair bit to see the columns. Thanks

  16. The new analysis tab is great. When you hit print screen it actually prints really well, however for a Trust who may want to print the screen for each school there is no name or log on it so have to physically write on. I know this only a small cosmetic thing but would be really useful.

  17. When school creates their own Group they would like to be able to run a report and not only filter for the group as they can currently but to exclude that group from the rest of the children. This can be done in OTrack

  18. The academic year rollover is currently completed at the end of August, however some schools (particularly international) return earlier in August. Meaning their academic year starts before the rollover has happened. Would it be possible to complete future rollovers earlier in August.

  19. As a senior leader I would like a report that tells me which staff have yet to complete their assessments for the term. This would need to take into account pre-filled Effective Assessment entries.

  20. To ensure that time spent using Sonar is purposeful and useful, I want to be able to see how much time my staff are spending Sonar and what they are doing so that I can assess whether this is time well spent.
