Since September 2016, we have been using an online assessment system called SOLAR to complete pupil assessments. Below is an extract from http://www.solarforschools.org.uk/ to help explain the system further:
SOLAR for schools is an online pupil assessment tracker for children with special needs.
It allows teachers to easily perform pupil progress across the various assessment frameworks, uploading evidence as they go along.
With the data accumulated you can instantly generate documents such as progress files, moderation files, IEP's, graphical analysis reports and achievement data all ready for printing or emailing.
We have made SOLAR flexible to meet the needs of your school curriculums. You can add your own curriculums or change the curriculums currently in SOLAR. We use national standard descriptors throughout SOLAR
SOLAR for schools has been designed with simplicity in mind.
