This does it for me. The key questions are not about what online reporting
means but more about the purpose of online reporting, that is, the learner
progressing their learning.
What online reporting actually looks like depends upon which stakeholder yo=
u
identify as being the principal stakeholder. For me, without exception, it
has to be the learner - the needs of the bureaucracy surrounding the learne=
r
then need to be prioritorised based upon their level of support for learnin=
g
so next in line is the teacher and parent, everybody else are then standing
inline.

As with many schools:<br>
=EF=BF=BD We have had full electronic registration (including lesson by les=

=EF=BF=BD We have had regular electronic reporting, although we still print=

<br>
John, you bring to mind an anecdote:<br>
<br>
Before VLEs or Home Access, a parent would ask their child what they have<b=
r>
done in school today, with the usual response, "Nothing much."<br=
>
<br>
When the VLE was launched, the child rushed home, switched on the computer<=
br>
and said, "Come and see what I've done in school today!"<br>
<br>
Weeks later, when parental access had been introduced, the child came home<=
br>
to the exclamation from the parent, "Wow, congratulations! I've be=
en looking<br>
on line at your work today, and I'm so proud of you!"<br>
<br>
That to me is a significant aspect of what on-line reporting is all about.<=

Subject: RE: [Secondary] RE: [Advisory] Online Reporting in Schools<br>
<br>
A very interesting series of posts on the topic of online real time<br>
reporting. Many of the schools I am working with are also engaging in the<b=
r>
same debates as expressed over the last day or two here.<br>
<br>
I think that Ray and others are right when they talk about online reporting=
<br>
as being a new phenomenon. Most headteachers, teachers, education<br>
professionals initially tend to think of online-reporting as simply being a=
<br>
replacement/substitute for the traditional school report of old. Then of<br=
>
course the notion of real time enters the thinking and the recognition that=
<br>
it is impossible to replace the traditional reflective and summative report=
<br>
issued termly or annually as real time.<br>
<br>
The difficulty arises from the word 'report' as this is already wel=
l defined<br>
in the mindset. Once we eliminate the notion of we think it means and carry=
<br>
out the activity that Ray suggest - talk to the parents about what they wan=
t<br>
we begin to get a very different picture of real time reporting. Albeit in<=
br>
limited form the feedback I get from parents us not about APP, tracking of<=
br>
progress, data related to performance and attainment scores. Yes this<br>
recognised as being useful perhaps a couple of times a year (at a parents<b=
r>
evening and then 6 months later), but the information they want relates muc=
h<br>
more to<br>
<br>
What are my offspring doing in school today (topics, themes and activities)=
<br>
Are they actually having a school lunch (secondary)- do they eat their lunc=
h<br>
(primary)<br>
Are they involved in extra curricular activities<br>
Homework tasks<br>
Timetables of activities when sons/daughters might need to take the extra<b=
r>
things they need PE kit, cooking ingredients, etc<br>
An eye into the kind of work they are doing so when they ask what have you<=
br>
been doing in school today and they get the usual reply - "not a lot&q=
uot;, they<br>
can look at some images/current scheme of work/peek at their offspring'=
s<br>
e-portfolio to initiate a conversation.<br>
<br>
Many of these are generic things that do not need to be about what each<br>
individual has contributed. The year 4 class teacher who posts up a few<br>
digital images (usually taken by pupils) of the activities on the class blo=
g<br>
is reporting to parents. Things like attendance and behaviour are pertinent=
<br>
to some =C2=A0but not all parents and certainly many parents feel that exis=
ting<br>
systems which text or email parents if a child is absent without<br>
notification are well established in many schools now.<br>
<br>
Most parents that I have spoken to (including those who are teachers) are<b=
r>
not interested in the bar charts, histograms, line graphs and pie charts<br=
>
that demonstrate the points scores from each unit of work. Parents want to<=
br>
know are offspring happy, engaged in learning, developing emotional and<br>
social confidence. If however a pupil does start to be noticeably<br>
under-performing, their are attitude changes, pupil suddenly becomes<br>
unhappy, disinterested etc that is when a proactive personal contact needs<=
br>
to be made by the school to the teacher.<br>
<br>
This leads me to my next area of concern - parents do know that learning is=
<br>
not linear and that many factors influence and shape the way an individual<=
br>
learns, they have good days and bad days, good lessons and not so good<br>
lessons, yet currently we seem to be in a culture which is data focussed an=
d<br>
teachers are pressurised to assess, track and monitor progress to the n'=
;th<br>
degree. At each monitoring pupils must be seen to demonstrate progress. Thi=
s<br>
has led to a huge dishonesty in the system particularly in secondary school=
s<br>
with significant numbers of teachers backwardly engineering the starting<br=
>
point assessment and using a loaded assessment dice to conjure up figures t=
o<br>
keep Mr Ofsted happy.<br>
<br>
As stated in another post we do not fatten pigs by weighing them, but the<b=
r>
current regime seems to be saying so you had better weigh them more often! =
I<br>
have done a lot of work with secondary schools on using APP - which can be<=
br>
an excellent tool if used wisely. It promotes the idea that we should not<b=
r>
atomise the learning outcomes into smaller chunks, that we should look at<b=
r>
progress over a significant period of time, it recognises that individuals<=
br>
may be better at some aspects of a subject than others yet we can aggregate=
<br>
a rounded attainment result yet having identified for us as teachers and<br=
>
shared with learners areas that need to be developed.<br>

For once I feel that I must disagree with you. =C2=A0Your bar-code illustra=
tion<br>
is excellent but the observation that you make, "Most schools have ver=
y<br>
little useful performance or competency data in their systems." is a<b=
r>
dangerous argument to make. =C2=A0On-line and real-time reporting is a rela=
tively<br>
new phenomenon. And yet there are fabulous systems out there for tracking<b=
r>
pupils' progress and for that matter the feedback provided by teachers.=
<br>
Rather than judging the potential of a product by the takeup of a meanderin=
g<br>
majority, why not ask those schools which are focussed on exploring<br>
real-time availability of information, whether grades, smiley faces, ad hoc=
<br>
written comments or even, dare I suggest, e-Portfolios?<br>
<br>
Agreed, attendance figures are a somewhat mundane and easy to process data<=
br>
set, but at least, if parents are being encouraged to access that<br>
information it is a start and should be commended rather than criticised.<b=
r>
Perhaps a little more support of local schools by intelligent parents,<br>
perhaps better communication from schools inviting parents to meet with<br>
staff in order to discuss the whole issue of real-time reporting might be a=
<br>
better approach?<br>

It has always struck me that the real-time reporting agenda has a massive<b=
r>
missing piece: where is the data that you are meant to be reporting on?<br>
I thought Chris Gerry (an innovative Head Teacher from Kent) made an<br>
excellent presentation at the NAACE autumn conference, pointing out that<br=
>
while Tesco analyses data on virtually every aspect of shoppers' purcha=
sing<br>
preferences, schools are, in terms of business intelligence, still in a sor=
t<br>
of Dickensian Dark Age of paper-based ledgers. Most schools have very littl=
e<br>
useful performance or competency data in their systems. There's a big<b=
r>
emphasis on attendance, I suspect, because it is about the only useful<br>
real-time data that schools have.<br>
The feet of clay of any business intelligence system is data input - and<br=

manual input is never the answer. The revolution for the supermarkets lay i=
n<br>
the bar-code reader. The revolution for schools will be when learning<br>
software (really useful and compelling in its own right) can report student=
<br>
performance and competence straight into central systems, which must also o=
f<br>
course be able to make sense of that data.<br>
I think that until this kind of interoperable data flow is sorted out, most=
<br>
of the energy in real time reporting programme will go on covering up the<b=

fact that schools will simply be unable to deliver what has been promised b=
