About JCQ Forecasts

The 3sysACADEMIC JCQ Forecasts function enables you to enter forecast results against pupils, such as mock exam results or other types of assessments. Typically, these assessments may take place from November onwards, although you are able to set up assessments before November if required.

Note: In order to help you estimate your pupils' results, you could set up a markbook task for each component on which you wish to assess them, using Markbook Tasks, then use Mark Entry to enter the mark results, and use Mark Inquiry to create calculated columns for the set of tasks required. Alternatively, you could use Markbook Schemes to generate markbook tasks for you. You are also able to import markbook data from MS Excel, using the Markbook Generic Export and Import functions.

The JCQ Forecast Grades screen enables you to add your forecast grades by exam group or subject set / exam group. The grid displays a list of pupils belonging to the selected exam group or subject set, along with their candidate number and UCI number. You can auto complete all of the empty forecast grade cells by selecting an item from the drop list at the top of Forecast Grade column. You are then able to change the forecast grades for individual pupils, if necessary.

You use passFINANCE/schoolADMIN to export the JCQ forecast grades to the relevant exam boards.

Note: As with many search screens within 3sysACADEMIC, you are able to utilise views to filter, sort and group the data in different ways. For details, see About Views.

Note: You are also able to export the search results displayed in the grid to Excel, by clicking . For details, see About Exporting Data to Excel.
