Sonar Tracker: EYFS Good Level of Development Tracking Report

Overview

This article provides an overview of the EYFS Good Level of Development Tracking report's purpose, guidance on accessing it, the various types of information it contains, and the different controls that help you customise what you see in the report.

Purpose

The EYFS Good Level of Development Tracking report lets you quickly see those pupils currently on track for GLD based on how they work compared to the expected standard for each of the twelve subject areas that make up GLD.  Where pupils are not yet achieving GLD, identify areas for development and introduce interventions to maximise each pupil's opportunity for GLD.

Opening the page

After selecting the EYFS Good Level of Development Tracking report from the Reports page menu, you will be prompted to select which pupils you wish to include. Select one or more Year Groups and / or Classes then select Load Report:

When choosing your Year Group, Pre Entry, Entry 1, Entry 2, Nursery 1 and Nursery 2 are not listed as options to select as you can only get GLD status for pupils from Reception onwards.

Each pupil's assessment is displayed for each of the Subject Areas

Number of Goals AT ARE

The total number of Subject Areas where the pupil has been assessed at JA (Just At) or higher. In the example below, the pupil has achieved JA (Just At) for 6 Subject Areas, At (At) for 5 and B (Below), therefore, the Number of Goals AT ARE is 11:

The maximum Number of Goals AT ARE is 12. When a pupil's Number of Goals AT ARE is 12, they have achieved GLD. The higher the number, the closer a pupil is to achieving GLD.

Summative Assessment for GLD Met

  • When a pupil's Number of Goals AT ARE is 12, they have achieved GLD. This is indicated as YES in this column.
  • When a pupil's Number of Goals AT ARE is less than 12, they have not yet achieved GLD. This is indicated as NO in this column.
