Enter baseline assessment results for your new intake during the autumn term and let CASPA manage these to give you full-year analysis. A baseline assessment for a new pupil may be part-way through the year and you can always use this in CASPA to understand whether that pupil appears to be on track to meet targets.\u00a0 However, to understand whether a pupil made expected progress across the whole year, you need to start with a result that reasonably represents where the pupil was at the end of the previous year. It is generally regarded as reasonable to use a baseline assessment for your new intake in the autumn term as the same level the pupil was likely to have achieved at the end of the previous summer term.\u00a0 To support this, any result entered or imported in the autumn term (for a pupil with no historic data) will be copied back to the previous summer term as part of the save\/import process. Some of the abilities this will unlock include:<\/p>\n
This saves you significant effort, avoiding the need for you to manually enter the same results to the previous year’s fields in CASPA.\u00a0 However,\u00a0remember that CASPA will only do this during the autumn term. It would certainly not be reasonable to assume\u00a0a mid-year result, for example a result from a February assessment, was the level the pupil was working at the\u00a0end of\u00a0the previous year so CASPA will not copy levels back to the previous year in the spring or summer terms.\u00a0 You can still add results to historic years yourself (via Data | Advanced tasks | CASPA historic data), but if you have genuine autumn term new intake baseline assessments, it is less effort if you can let CASPA do it before the cut-off at the end of December each year.<\/p>\n
If you import your data into CASPA, just import the baselines as you would normally.\u00a0 These will be imported, just as you might expect, as current results recorded as the level the pupil had achieved on the date entered during the autumn term.\u00a0 However, if there is no historic data for the pupil either already recorded in CASPA or within the file being imported, CASPA will automatically copy these levels to the summer 2019 fields.<\/p>\n
If you enter data manually, you should go to the current year tab (2019\/2020) on the main data entry pages and enter the baselines as current results.\u00a0 If there is no historic data for the pupil already recorded in CASPA, saving the changes will result in CASPA automatically copying these levels to the summer 2019 fields.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
