A wealth of reporting and analysis
CASPA makes an extensive range of analysis and reporting available to
users, from simple reports about individual pupils to reports and
analyses for cohorts of pupils in your school to complex whole-school
analyses that deliver in a few mouse-clicks the key information you
require to be able to complete your school's Self-Evaluation Form (SEF).
The simplest way to experience the wealth of reporting
available in CASPA is to download the free Evaluation Version of CASPA
from our Downloads page
and to explore what the system has to offer you; all of the reporting in
CASPA has been designed to be simple and intuitive, and help is
available at all times from CASPA's extensive context-sensitive Help
system which explains not only how to run each type of report and the
options available, but also the kind of information the report might
make available to you.
However, for those who just wish to get a quick
impression of the breadth of CASPA's reporting, a few examples of
reports and their uses are given below:
- Improve the consistency of assessment using CASPA's 'Ranking report by
aspect': CASPA includes simple reporting to allow you to ensure
the consistency of assessment within your school via the use of
CASPA's 'Ranking report by aspect'. Ranking reports group
together pupils scoring at the same outcome level for the specified
subject, regardless of their age, their categories of need or the
classes in which they are taught and allow inconsistent assessments
to be quickly identified. For an example of CASPA's ranking
report, please click here.
- Ensure appropriate categorisation of pupils
for bench-marking using CASPA's percentile graphs: CASPA's
bench-marking model takes account of the age of the pupil, their
level of prior attainment and their category of need; to ensure
reliability in analysis, you need to have confidence that pupils
have been assigned to appropriate categories of need; CASPA's
percentile graphs allow you to do this, as well as giving
information about the spread of attainments within cohorts within
your school. For an example of CASPA's percentile graphs, please

- Comparing actual progress against
expectations: CASPA provides sophisticated and powerful
high-level reporting of the proportions of cohorts of pupils
progressing better or worse than expected based on their age,
category of need and level of prior attainment , and by how much
their progress differs from expectations . CASPA's reporting allows you to drill down instantly to identify
individual pupils and the reasons they may be progressing better or
worse than expected. For an example of CASPA's progress versus
expectations reports, please click

- Comparing a pupil's actual progress against their
targets: CASPA allows you to compare a pupils's actual progress
against their targets in each aspect, and also to compare both
actual and target progress against expectations based on age,
category of need and level of prior attainment; this allows
target-setting to be reviewed to establish whether targets for each
aspect were excessively or insufficiently challenging for the pupil.

- Reporting suitable for use with parents at a
parents' evening: CASPA includes a wide range of reporting about
individual pupils that is suitable both for use at a parents'
evening, or for inclusion as part of annual reporting to parents.
