At a glance

S.1 to S.6 made for you

Choose “Secondary with A level” when you sign up: all six years are created, with the year’s three terms.

Subjects and papers

Each A-level class takes its subjects from the catalogue of subjects and their papers.

Progressive tests

Up to ten tests a term for each class, with averages, grades, positions and the trend.

One account per student

Fees, SchoolPay and the balance follow the student from S.1 to S.6.

A-level assessment

Every test of the term, for every A-level class

Run up to ten tests a term. Each student’s card shows every test, the average, the grade from your scale and the direction they are moving.

  • Averages, grades and positions from the grading scale you set for the class.
  • The best and the weakest subject on every card, and the trend from the first tests to the last.
  • A class analysis sheet counting how many students got each grade.
  • Parents see the report in the app when you choose to show it.

S.1 to S.4 on the new curriculum

  • Units, the project and the exam, with maximums you can change for the term.
  • Your own descriptor and grade bands, printed with what each descriptor means.
  • Students move from S.4 to S.5 with the whole school promoted to next year’s classes in one go.

Who does what

Subject teachers
Enter marks for their own subjects and take roll-calls.
Director of studies
Sets up the tests and report cards, and reviews schemes of work.
Head teacher and deputy
Release report cards and look at the books without changing them.
Bursar
Bills fees, records payments and follows up balances.
Warden
Keeps the hostels: rooms, beds and who sleeps where.

Each member of staff signs in as themselves; their role decides what they can change and what they can only look at.

Not there yet

Plainly, so you can decide:

  • UACE grades and points are not on A-level report cards yet. We are building UACE grading; until it is ready, A-level classes are assessed with progressive tests on your own grading scale.
  • University weighted points are not worked out by the system. Our guide shows how they are calculated.
Questions

What schools ask us

Does it work out UACE points?

Not yet. UACE grading is being built. Today A-level classes use progressive tests with your own grading scale; our guide explains how UACE points and weighted points are calculated.

Can O level and A level be in one school account?

Yes. Choose “Secondary with A level” when you sign up; S.1 to S.6 are made, and one student keeps one account from S.1 to S.6.

Can each A-level class have its own subjects?

Yes. Each class takes the subjects it teaches from the catalogue of subjects and their papers.

Can parents follow their child’s tests?

Yes. When you choose to show a progressive-test report, parents see it in the School Dynamics app.
