The Snapshot provides a quick overview of a pupil's performance at school. There are various items which can be displayed on this page, which are shown in the table of contents (below).

The Snapshot Page

Today's Attendance

This will show the pupil's attendance to school today. Parents will be able to see if their children are arriving to school on time and going to their lessons.

Note: parents will also be able to see if registers are not being taken on time.

You can decide whether parents are able to see the names of the rooms and the teachers for their classes too.

This Term's Attendance

This line chart shows the pupil's attendance this term. Attendance is shown week-by-week, so if a pupil is absent for a week their attendance will drop down to 0 on the graph, for that week.

During the first week of a new term, this chart will be blank. This is because Insight needs at least two data points before it can draw a line. You should have data showing from the second week of term onwards.

Alerts

Insight can display key indicators about each pupil. These indicators are set in SIMS, so you can decide what thresholds to use i.e. Green for above 95% attendance, Red for below 90% attendance and Yellow in the middle.

Each of the alerts (Attendance, Behaviour and Exclusions) can be turned on or off. If parents hover over the flags (you can also have hands for thumbs up, thumbs down, etc.) then they will see the thresholds compared to how their children are doing.

Behaviour Summary

The Behaviour Summary will show information about pupils' behaviour at school. This section is divided into four subsections:

  • Achievements (positive behaviour incidents)
  • Behaviours (negative behaviour incidents)
  • Cashing In (points that pupils can spend on physical rewards e.g. shopping vouchers)
  • Recent Behaviours (a rolling feed of the pupil's most recent behaviour incidents)

Parents can click on any of the coloured areas to be taken to the Achievements, Behaviours or Cashing In pages, which will give more detailed information about the pupil's behaviour at school.

The section showing the pupil's most recent behaviour information is not interactive so cannot be clicked on. Any or all of these sections can be switched on or off as needed.

Notices

The notices section shows parents their most recent messages. Some notices will be system-generated, such as notices pertaining to upcoming Parents Evenings, or pupil absences. Staff can also send notices to parents using Insight. Notices sent this way will always appear in Insight and can also be sent as an email or SMS message.

Recent Homeworks

The Assignments section of the page (often referred to as homework) will show a rolling list of the last few homework assignments the pupil has been given. Parents will only be presented with assignments that the child has not yet completed. Parents can click on any of the homework assignments to be taken to the Assignments page, which will show more information about the pupil and their homework.
