Sonar Multi-School Overview

Available to Sonar Tracker customers who are part of an establishment that comprises multiple schools (for example, a Multi Academy Trust), Sonar Multi-School is a scalable, web-based, education-friendly system that lets you view and analyse live Trust level data for a number of key measures using data from across all of your Schools. Data is presented using an interactive dashboard and a series of insightful reports. These can be drilled down into, enabling you to develop a more detailed understanding of your Trust performance.

Specifically, the different parts of Sonar Multi-School answer the following questions:

• Subject Overviews.
  • How do key Subjects and Goals compare?
  • Are their any discrepancies in the key attainment data for a group (for example, School, Year Group, Females, Males, Disadvantaged / Not Disadvantaged pupils or specific Ethnicity)?
• Attainment Overviews.
  • Are there any discrepancies in the current attainment data for all Subjects by School or Group?
• Progress from Statutory Attainment.
  • Are pupils who achieved the standard in EYFS and Key Stage 1 currently on track?
  • Are pupils currently on track compared to their Key Stage 1 SATs attainment?
  • Are there any Groups at risk?
  • Are any Schools adding value?
• Progress Over Time.
  • Are any Schools or Groups at risk of coasting or falling behind?
  • Are there any trends that need to be addressed?
  • Are there any Schools or teachers who are accelerating progress who could support other members of your Trust?
• Key Group Gap Differences.
  • As a Trust, are we closing the gap?
  • Where should efforts be focused to improve pupil outcomes for these Groups?
  • What are the trends?
