Progress
The Progress tab is the cockpit for report week. It shows how many reports exist, how many are published, and which subjects still have missing marks or comments. Use it to decide who to chase.
Open Reports → Progress.
Filters
The filter row has Academic year (always has a value), Report template, Period, a groups picker, Apply and Clear.
The Period filter opens on the Current period, as the dashboard does. It sets the period the marks and comments are counted for. Clear it to count All periods, the whole year. A term stands for its parts, so choosing Term 1 includes Term 1A and Term 1B. If nothing is due in the period you chose, the tab says "Nothing is due in this period".
Change a filter and press Apply. Clear returns to the defaults.
Counts
Cards at the top count for the year, template and groups you chose:
| Card | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reports | All reports in scope. |
| Published | Published reports. |
| Pending | Waiting for a reviewer. |
| Changes requested | Sent back to the author. |
| Subjects with missing marks | Subjects where some pupils have no mark. |
| Subjects missing comments | Subjects where comments are missing. |
Reports by group
A table with one row per group and report template: Group, Template, Total, a count for each status (Draft, Pending, Changes requested, Approved, Published) and Published %. Each column has a funnel and a sort. Use it to see which class is behind.
Marks & comments by subject
One row per subject. Open a row to see its classes.
| Column | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Subject, Groups | The subject and how many classes. |
| Students | Pupils in scope. |
| Marks entered | The share of marks entered. |
| Comments | The share of comments written. |
You can filter by Complete (100%), Not complete or Not started (0%). Export downloads the table.
Example
It is Wednesday of report week. The head of Year 7 sees "Science: 62% marks, 40% comments". She opens the row and finds that 7B has 0% and 7A is complete. She asks the 7B teacher to finish.
Hidden empty markbooks
Some classes have a markbook for a subject that is not taught there, or that is no longer on its template. These empty markbooks would show as 0% and mislead you. MarkBook hides them and tells you how many: "Empty markbooks hidden: 3 (the subject is not taught in that class, or it is no longer on its template)." A markbook that holds marks is never hidden.
Edge cases
- Counts are for the period you chose. Switching from Current period to All periods changes the percentages.
- A report with missing marks also shows chips on the Reports tab.
