  1. 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

  3. To customise summative reports so they can be broken it down into the smaller steps e.g w and w+ rather than banded together as At

  4. Be able to enter ARE for tests for bands 8 and 9. Can currently enter range but no ARE. Entering ARE would enable analysis of these year groups.

  5. Import photos to Sonar from iSAMS so that you can check which pupil is which if you have multiple pupils with the same name.

  6. TT allowed users to display highlighted objectives ordered by the relevant TAF standard, rather than the year group/band. This allowed teachers to spot gaps and enter judgements. This would be useful for KS1, KS2 and for EYFS ELG assessment.

  8. Had schools where new children have joined them. They have no UPN. They do not need to report data but because no UPN file not created. Can we look at how to mitigate against this situation? Eg manually update children? Remove children from CTF? Make CTF without children with no UPN?

  9. Since the recent update of Sonar, the Switch Schools function is less easy to use. Although users can click on their profile and scroll through the list of schools that they have access to, this is not easy and there is no way to search as there used to be. For large MATs this is a problem - could we have it back please?

  10. We need a way to filter this report to see data for particular classes at a time, as you can with other reports. Schools with a combination of Mainstream and SEND pupils need this for reporting purposes.

  11. School's would like to track the inputting of data for formative assessment on a Monthly rather than Termly basis. It is interesting for SLT to be able to track when children are achieving objectives and sometimes this can change multiple times over a half term.

  13. Option to remove Sig Below and Sig Above from Reports. Some schools do not want to include these children / keep them on a separate report.

    This would also be useful in the Summative Progress Analysis - would give a more accurate measure, as those out of year who haven't made progress (eg. Yr4, moving from 3at to 2at) wouldn't be included as Expected Progress, being still sig below

  14. At present it is only possible to explore data within the test report in any detail by amending the threshold scores in the whole school setting sections. The test scores report in the original Target Tracker was far more flexible as it allowed you to set thresholds for below, above etc within the report itself - much quicker and much more flexible.

  15. 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'?

  16. 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.

  17. In Target Reports, you cannot filter by Target given or Assessment given, or even by progress measure. This would be so helpful, to filter out just the -1 progress or Bs, for example.

  18. Change the format of data entry for Salford Reading Age so that the age in months is inputted the same way as age in years. To input the months you simply select the required number, but to select the year you choose from a scrolling choice of numbers. This scrolls past where you need it to then you need to click manually through each individual number to get back to where you need to be. It is overly time consuming and frustrating.

  20. It would be really helpful to have a report that would show overall summative data (%ARE+) for each year group all on 1 page (one for each subject).

    The columns would be:
    end of phase (FS or KS1), previous summer, aut, spr sum, target

    The rows would be:
    Y1, Y2, Y3, Y4, Y5, Y6

    Even better if this could be further subdivided into classe:
    Class A Y1, Class AY2, Class B Y1, Class B Y2 etc..
