Key features

• Tracks pupil progress – Predicted attainment, individual targets and termly assessments are recorded in the SIMS Tracking Progress marksheets.
• Colour coded tracking -‘Traffic lights’ show whether pupils are making good progress, falling behind or ‘stuck’.
• Customise the tracking system to suit your school - Marksheets can be customised to the requirements of your school’s assessment policy, for example six-termly tracking or to alter the predicted progress line.
• Teacher marksheet screen - Individual and class progress is shown on one screen, which summarises average group progress and can be filtered to focus on target groups, including vulnerable children or intervention groups.
• Automatic pupil tracking grids - Assessment results recorded in the SIMS progress tracking marksheets translate directly into tracking grids, showing pupil progress term by term and year by year, and saving you from re-creating these. Grids display percentages below, on or above target, giving immediate analysis of class or cohort progress against school or national targets.
• Creates pupil reports for parents - SIMS Assessment can automatically compile pupil reports based upon recorded targets and assessments. These are then stored in the pupil record for a complete and accessible history.  Using the updated SIMS Comment Banks, writing pupil reports is even easier.
• Analyse Performance - SIMS Assessment makes use of the data you’re already entering to predict, review and compare performance by subject, group or over time. National progression lines are provided to enable comparisons between your school and national averages, at whole school, class or individual pupil level.
• Maintains a historical record - SIMS maintains a complete record of all assessments recorded over each pupil’s life in the school, providing a complete picture of their progress.
• Flexible working -Teachers can the enter grades and comments over the web at home via SIMS Learning Gateway.

Updated SIMS Comment Banks - SIMS have now updated the comment banks for SIMS Profiles. Call the Sales Desk on 0845 460 4013 to find out more.
