Track Progress

• Use the yellow and orange squares to identify areas to revisit.

• Assess the ‘problem’ objectives again:• ‘It’s brilliant for picking up things I thought they had grasped. 

When we tested prime numbers a significant number had forgotten.  I addressed this the next lesson and now they know.’ Year 6 teacher

• Pupil results stay in i-Progress throughout their time at your school making it easy to see and track progress.

• You can compare results between classes and year groups.

Personalise Support for All

• Using the reports you can easily identify your strongest and weakest pupils, helping you with planning and target setting.

• You can stretch the more able: i-Progress covers numeracy from levels 1-7.

• Set assessments for the whole class on the same objectives and i-Progress will personalise their assessment with ‘adaptive

questions’.

• Adaptive questions mean that pupils will be motivated to achieve. Questions will be generated to support and/or stretch depending on pupil response to the previous question.

• With Home Access parents/carers can log on at home and view their child’s results. They can also use the blog function to send a message to the teacher.

• Clear and easy to understand reports for parents/carers and pupils.
