Pupils
‘Out of the box’, Aspire includes a range of KS1KS1 and KS2KS4 and KS5 benchmark estimates for all of your pupils. Simply decide on the appropriate level of challenge for each pupil and then set a target. It’s that simple. We’ll also tell you how likely a pupil is to reach that target to ensure that you get the right balance between ‘realistic’ and ‘challenging’.
Want to set targets for new pupils arriving at your school? Simply input their basic details and Aspire will do the rest by automatically matching them to the DfE national pupil database.
Coming this autumn — pupil tracking
From this autumn we’ll be piloting a pupil tracking feature in Aspire allowing you to input interim pupil assessments and monitor progress.
Estimate > benchmark > target set > track progress. All in a single system!
