69. What are the different ways that I can complete assessment for my pupils?

TrackAble offers several flexible ways to complete assessments using Star Cards, allowing staff to record progress efficiently while matching classroom practice. Some features depend on user permissions and school assessment settings.

Completing a Single Star Card

This is the most common method for recording assessment.

Steps

  1. Click the star to open the Star Card

  2. Add:

    • Context

    • Evidence

    • A file or photo (if required)

  3. Click Completed

  4. Click Save

Tip:
If you open a Star Card and make no changes, simply click Cancel.

Completing Preceding Stars

Note: This feature must be enabled by your TrackAble Administrator.

Normally, stars are completed in sequence. However, if a pupil is already secure in a statement, you can complete multiple stars at once.

How It Works

  • Open a later star (for example, the 3rd star)

  • Click Completed and then Save

If earlier stars have not been completed, a message will appear:

  • Yes – completes all preceding stars

  • No – completes only the selected star

  • Cancel – returns you to the Star Card

Important:

  • Using this feature on the 2nd star will complete the 1st star, but not the 3rd

  • This feature can be used on any star, not just the last one

Allocating a Star Card to Multiple Pupils or a Whole Class

Note:

  • This feature must be enabled by your TrackAble Administrator

  • It only works on a new, unused Star Card (no evidence or updates added yet)

Steps

  1. Open a new Star Card

  2. Click Add more pupils

  3. Enter:

    • Individual pupil names in Add pupils, or

    • Class names in Add tutor groups

  4. Click Update

  5. Add your assessment as normal

This is ideal for recording shared learning activities.

Completing Multiple Statements at Once

Note: This feature must be enabled by your TrackAble Administrator.

How to Complete Multiple Statements

  1. Click the number at the start of each statement to highlight it

  2. Click Complete Statements

  3. Amend the date if required

  4. Click Save

Using This Feature for Baselining

You can use this method to baseline pupils at a percentage level (for example, P5 + 50%).

  • Change the date to 30th August

  • This creates a new start-of-year baseline

Adding Evidence to Multiple Star Cards

  • After selecting statements, click Add Evidence

  • Evidence will be added to all selected Star Cards at once

If you change your mind, click Cancel.

Completing Stars by Star Name (Emerging / Developing / Secure)

Note: This feature must be enabled by your TrackAble Administrator.

When enabled, you can complete all stars of the same type within a level.

Steps

  1. Click the Star Name (Emerging, Developing, or Secure)

  2. Amend the date if required

  3. Click Complete Statements

Click Cancel to exit without saving.

Multiple Selection of Stars

Note: This feature must be enabled by your TrackAble Administrator.

This allows you to select stars at random, rather than in sequence.

Steps

  1. Use the right mouse button to click and highlight stars

  2. Selected stars will appear highlighted in green

  3. Click Complete Stars

  4. Optional:

    • Change the date

    • Add evidence to all selected stars using Add Evidence

  5. Click Save

Click Cancel if you do not wish to proceed.

Permissions and Settings

Many of the features described above:

  • Are controlled by your user profile

  • May also need to be enabled within your school’s Assessment Settings
