About SQA Unit Results

The 3sysACADEMIC SQA Unit Results function enables you to enter the unit results against pupil records, as and when the components/units are assessed during the school year.

The SQA Unit Results & Estimates screen enables you to add your forecast unit marks of pass or fail ('P' or 'F') 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 SCN number and gender. The subsequent columns display specific assessment units/components. You can auto complete all of the empty result cells by selecting 'P' or 'F' from the drop list at the top of each Results column. You are then able to change the forecast prediction for individual pupils, if necessary.

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.

Once an actual result has been received and imported into the database, the actual result replaces the forecast result. The information icon Information icon appears next to it. You can click on it to view the date on which the result was sent from the exam board.

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 MS Excel icon. For details, see About Exporting Data to Excel.
