  1. Ability to rename data sets by cohort, rather than key stage. This would be useful to ensure consistency and keep the system tidy between administrator changes or school changes if they join a trust.

  2. Change the term 'gender' to 'sex' to be inline with recent shift to that terminology

  3. It would be very useful if users could simply go back to the data they were looking at after drilling down to student-level in reports, rather than having to add navigation steps to find the same page again.

    Thanks very much for your consideration!

  4. Recently announced was a Grades Management Upgrade which allows you to update a student’s grades all on one page, rather than having to go into each qualification individually. Many thanks for this.

    Could the same improvement be rolled out for "Baseline Management" as this would be a great improvement too.

  5. It would be REALLY REALLY REALLY helpful if you could support having multiple tabs open in SISRA. Very frustrating that you can not when i am trying to look at analysis from various angles! Too time consuming to go in and out of multiple reports.

  8. Being able to track things across multiple data sets is really useful. The Headlines Tracker report is very good. But this doesn't currently extend to the Qualifications/Grades reports - only 'average points' is trackable. Please give the ability to track 9-7%, 9-5%, 9-4%, SPI on the Tracker report.

  9. As in Excel, you can freeze the top of the screen so it shows the headers and filters all the time. I often have to switch filters and find it annoying to keep scrolling up and down the page many times to see what I need to. Or, alternatively, have a floating menu at the side that stays put as you scroll so the tabs, etc. go with you as you move up and down the page. I think the data is too spread out anyway.
    Thank you!

  10. Have an automated data export facility via an API or a Snowflake link or similar into services like Power BI. Currently we have to run 20+ different exports every time even a single grade changes and copy/paste them together to get access to do our own internal reporting including SISRA analytics stats into these kinds of services when it could all be done seamlessly and without the ongoing risk of human error quite easily.

  11. I use the following to see who the tope performers are on GCSE Results Day:
    Grades>Overview>Students (and then All A8 Quals and set to count, order by APS).

    I've just realised that a 9-8 in science is averaged to an 8.5 and then counts as two 8s for this student, which effectively makes this page inaccurate when counting how many 9s/8s/7s a student has received. Similarly, a L2D*, 8.5 is rounded down to an 8, but this is uderstandable as the page can only count integer grades, but the science count needs to be sorted so that this page is…

  12. it would be very helpful if you could see the title of ALL the assessments uploaded, and chose which you want to publish - so all of the assessments uploaded can be identified and you can see which have been published and which haven't - at the moment, until you publish you could be mistaken for thinking it's not there.

  13. We have recently created a focus group on Sisra for Year 10 & Year 9 Review 3 assessments. This is in order to derive performance according to CAT Band. The set up of this focus group has gone well and are using filters to see what reports look like using this criteria. What would be useful is for focus groups to also be available as a selection using "Breakdown" so we can see this information on a single page (currently this is only available for groups applicable to all Sisra customers, e.g. disadvantaged, EAL etc). Please can functionality be added…

  14. Currently there is no functionality to enable attainment to be compared for headline percentages for different year groups. If possible, please can we request the ability to load the Reports overview page and see data from other year groups side-by-side. Many thanks

  15. Provide an additional Forecast Collection that can be published against terms KS4 or KS5 exams to enable tracking of forecast data, with at least 3 collections a year for each cohort from Y10 to Y13.
    Currently in KS4 we have to fit 4 forecasts, 4 tracking a year and 2 mocks for each cohort and splitting them between datasets and assessment collections is messy. A separate forecast collection, the same as an assessment collection but always publishing against end of Key stage exams would enable tracking of forecasts separately so much easier for staff to view

  17. KS5 includes the great functionality to allow 'Alternative Upload Values' in Grade Method creation / reconfiguration. Could this be extended to KS3/4 to allow schools to complete vocational assessments using own grade sturcture, and also allow the DfE style grades normally only seen on Embargo day. This would save a lot of 'grade not in method' icons and or updating / resolving within Excel before upload which is subject to human error.

  19. Can we raise the KS5 reporting threshold from 500 students for 6th form colleges with high student populations. There are approx 80 sixth form colleges across the country and we only have approx 30%. Little choice in the market and it will therefore help acquisition and make customers in this cohort stickier.

  20. When using the comparisons function and exporting the data, it currently exports over 3 rows (eg grade on row 1, target on row 2 and diff on row 3). Would be good to have it all on 1 row.
