There are now more places where you can add comments, files, links and actions to, rather than just to schools and individual statements.

You can add an item to a whole focus area. This could be useful if you wanted to comment on a whole area, rather than just an individual statement.

Previously, you could only add comments against an individual school, but you can now add them against a whole dashboard or whole evaluation. This means that once a group of schools have completed their evaluations, a trust or group of schools can comment on the trends of the whole trust, as well as writing a trust wide action plan.

To do this, just check in the side toolbar what you are looking at:

Sometimes a statement in your evaluation may not be applicable to all schools. You can now allow schools to mark these statements as not applicable. You can do this under settings – edit evaluation and where you edit a statement, you can set the switch to “allow score to be N/A”:

When a user comes to fill this statement in, they will now have the choice to mark it as not applicable:

Users can also now reset a score (and thus exclude it from the overall scores) by clicking on that score again. A school can reset all scores at once. To do this, go to settings – setup evaluation and go to the required school. At the bottom click on “reset all scores” button.

In a similar way, you can reset all scores for all schools in a dashboard, or all schools in an evaluation, should you have the correct permissions.

NB – this does not forget the previous scores, and these can still be viewed by looking at a statement’s history or by setting the effective date to a date in the past.
