Discover

Your thinking partner.

Ask anything about your school in plain English. Discover finds the data, draws the chart and tells you what is worth noticing.

01 · The conversation

Ask a question. Get an answer.

Type a question. Discover pulls the data, builds the chart and answers at the right length. Then it stops.

The italic note is what a dashboard can't give you. The chart shows the numbers. The note points at what's worth noticing.

The watching card offers to keep an eye on it. If the figure moves before your next visit, Discover tells you.

How is Year 4 doing in Writing this term?

Year 4 is at 68% at expected in Writing. That's in line with last term, but below the school's 73%. The drop from Reading (79%) is sharper than in any other year group.

22-point gap between classes, the widest of any year group this term.

The year-group figure is hiding a class-level split. Birches and Aspens are 22 points apart in Writing, while their Reading attainment is within 4 points of each other.

The gap between the two classes matters more than the year-group average. Reading is steady in both, so this isn't a cohort problem. It's a question about Writing in Aspens. Worth looking at composition and transcription before the next data drop.

02 · Prepare

Give it a job. Get on with your day.

Ask Discover to prepare a whole-school review, an attendance review or a review of one subject. It plans the work and does it in the background.

You carry on. Enter grades, open a report or close the tab. The work keeps going without you.

When it's ready, a note appears beside Discover at the top of the page. One click opens the finished review.

The Tracker+ Dashboard with the Discover tray open in the top bar: an attendance review for Summer 2027, prepared and ready to open.

03 · Memory

It remembers what you care about.

Discover remembers your role, how you like answers, what you keep an eye on and your school's way of doing things. You don't have to say it twice.

It learns as you work. When it adds something, a quiet Memory updated line appears under the box you type in, with Undo beside it.

Pin the lines that matter. Forget the ones that don't. Go Off the record and nothing in that conversation is remembered.

04 · Your next discovery

What changed, waiting when you arrive.

Open Discover in the morning and three short observations are already waiting, drawn from what changed this term.

Your memory decides which three. A head watching Writing gaps sees Writing gaps. A head focused on attendance sees attendance.

Good morning, Maya.

Answers

It tells you when the data
can't answer.

Three example questions. Each answer gives the figure, says what matters most, and is honest when the numbers are too small to mean much.

You asked  ·  What's our PA rate this term?

12.7% across the school, 31 pupils. That's up from 9.4% at this point last year, mostly in Years 3 and 6. Pupil premium is the clearer driver: PP PA stands at 26%, non-PP at 7%.

The widening PP gap matters more than the headline figure. The headline will move with each cohort. The gap is the deeper problem.

You asked  ·  Average Reading score in Year 3?

An average would hide more than it shows here. Year 3 Reading is spread wide, with a group at greater depth and a group below expected. The mean lands in the middle, where very few pupils are.

Worth looking at the spread instead. It tells you more than the average, especially which children the support is or isn't reaching.

You asked  ·  Are EHCP pupils outperforming SEN-K pupils in Maths?

The groups are too small to compare. Only four EHCP pupils have Maths data this term. Their average is higher than SEN-K, but one pupil's score could change that.

A better question might be: how are SEN pupils as a whole doing against their targets? That has enough data behind it, and it's probably what you want to know.
