Analyse your performance

Simple, quick and comprehensive

Take a look

Our self-evaluation dashboards are made up of eight easy-to-understand reports. Utilising a range of simple gauges, charts and tables, the dashboards allow you to quickly compare your attainment and progress to both national data and similar schools.

Overview

A high level summary of your school's performance including key strengths and weaknesses. Our dashboards use all the latest DfE measures along with an extended set of FFT indicators.

Attainment & progress

Analyse your attainment and progress over time. Completely configurable – filter your own group of pupils and compare their performance to similar pupils nationally. Create your own bespoke reports and dashboards.

Pupil groups

A comparative analysis of all the pupil groups in your school on a single page. The simple bar chart facility allows you to rank your groups from top to bottom in an instant.

Subjects

Compare attainment and progress across all key subjects in a single report. Clearly identify subject strengths and weaknesses. Analyse the performance of your whole school or filter the report for specific groups of pupils.

Disadvantaged pupils

Evaluate progress and analyse gaps for disadvantaged pupils. A key report for inspection.

Pupils

With Aspire, you can analyse results for individual pupils by comparing expected and actual rates of progress. Measure the success of your intervention strategies and use the data to inform future programmes of support.

Scatterplot

Visualise and evaluate pupil performance. Extended version of RAISE/ASP functionality.

Context

The Context report helps you to understand the profile and makeup of your cohorts. How do they differ from year to year? How do they compare to the national profile? Are absence rates consistent across different pupil groups?

“I now know the overall school standards compared to the national equivalents, and the performance of Pupil Premium pupils.

The visual representation of the data in dials and other pictograms makes analysis and evaluation much easier to present, and is very clear and easy to understand.”
