Outcome
The test scores are updated and saved as you go along. Where you have entered raw scores, the total score and scaled score calculate immediately. These values are read-only.
The conversion tables will be programmed into the software shortly after they have been published by the DfE which will enable the test section of the End of Key Stage 1 Outcomes report to be populated.
The Summary screen allows you to have an at-a-glance view of attainment across all subjects.
Reporting KS1 Outcomes
KS1 tests can be used to inform the Teacher Assessment which is reflected in Statutory Dashboard in the Analysis tab. Data is refreshed overnight so data entered today will show in the dashboard tomorrow.
Full Sonar Tracker subscribers can immediately analyse results in the End of Key Stage 1 Outcomes Report.
