Assessing students on another level can be useful when a student struggles to get through the texts for their own year group and you would like to see how the student would do on a lower leveled text, can also be used to challenge strong readers.
Some Important details regarding this:
- Assessments conducted on another level than the students actual year will not be included in the statistics (as a start).
- We always recommend to first assess the student on it's own level before testing another level. This way you will get a result for the student to include in the statistics and vital info of how the student performs compared to students in their own age.
- If the student is unable to be assessed in its own level, please mark the student as an emergent reader as this alternative will be included in the statistics.
- The student's result when assessed on another level is compared to the year group of the level of the assessment, not the student's own year. This is the reason why it is not included in the statistics.
- It is perfectly fine to assess students in higher levels than their own year group as well. Please make sure to assess the student in it's own level first in this case too.
To assess a student on another level, simply go to the Test application and press "Test student on another level". Then select which level you would like to assess the student on and start the test.
The result

, usually found around a result:
Class list
- In the class list, the results conducted on another level can either be shown or hidden using a checkbox.
- If a student has a result on another level, the symbol will show in the Info column, even if that result isn't shown in the list. This is to make it easier to find these assessments. The info column (and all other columns) can be hidden in the "Table columns" dropdown.
