Academic Reporting Forms and Generating an Academic Report

Forms and other information regarding the Academic reporting processes can be accessed in the following articles:

Curriculum Setup

Depending on the schools reporting set up, some of the items below may not need to be completed.

Hide any timetable periods, report types, report templates and values templates to prevent teachers from entering reporting data under the incorrect options.
- Setting visibility options for reporting components
If applicable, ensure comments have been proofed and imported into the Comment bank.
- Importing and Managing the Comment Bank
Ensure the course type is setup correctly for your school's reporting requirements.
- Creating and Managing Course types
Ensure the required syllabus (outcomes) have been uploaded into SEQTA
- Adding and managing Syllabus
- SEQTA Custom Syllabus sheet

Marks Book Setup

Ensure the Marks book is set up correctly to meet the school's reporting requirements.

Entering Results, Attendance and Reporting Data

Proofing Academic Reports

It is essential reports are proofed well in advance of time for printing. This allows sufficient lead time should there be any issues or further customisations required.

This may require you to enter 'dummy' data in for a student before printing the report. Once confirmed that the reports print correctly, the dummy data can be deleted.

Archiving Reports

Reports should be archived just after they have been printed. It is essential reports be archived prior to rolling students into the next year level as part of the end of year rollover process.

Archiving Academic Reports

List of Reporting Components

Report types: these are your reporting cycles and/or categories (eg: Interim 1, Semester 1, Statement of Results).
Course types: these are the core of your programme scoring method (eg: marks or grades), and manage visibility of columns in the Marks book to record academic achievement (i.e. Grade, Mark, Exam Mark etc)
Comments: As mentioned below, these are entered in a Report template or a Value template. There is a degree of control over the length of comments. Comments can also be accessed from a preset library (Comment Bank).
Report templates: these are used to record approaches to learning, and to manage columns in the Marks book to record non-academic reporting data on a per-subject basis (eg: affectives (attitude, behaviour, effort etc) and subject teacher comments per student).
Values templates: are used to store "whole-of-school" values (eg: pastoral care comments, head of school observations, co-curricular and attendance data).
- Attendance data is pushed onto a selected Values template report by running the report called Attendance statistics for reports from the Academic reports page.
Syllabus and outcomes are drawn from the syllabus records that have been associated with a programme.
Subject description and priority are drawn from the subject record.
Report Assets: is where images to be displayed on the academic report are stored.
- School logo and Staff signatures are commonly uploaded to this area.
Report salutation is typically linked to the details of the teacher that is linked to the class.
