Sonar Tracker: How do I record baseline information for my pupils?

Sonar Tracker

You can record your start of year baseline information for pupils by selecting the appropriate Start of Year Baseline as the Assessment Period in either the EYFS Summative Assessments (New) or the Primary Summative Assessments (New) page (depending on which Key Stage the pupil is in), then enter the baselines. 

Between 3 August 2026 and 1 September 2026, your assessment pages show Start of Year Baseline by default. From 1 September 2026, they show Autumn 1 by default instead. To view / work with your Start of Year Baselines after this date, select them from the Assessment Point drop-down list.
