I launched the new platform last night with the Secondary teachers and they loved it. They found it really easy to work with and with the way the reports are set out, we had probably the best Naplan discussion we have ever had.
About the SPAstandard+ module
The SPAstandard+ module is a tool for schools that analyses, displays, stores & communicates your students' summative assessment data. We don’t just colour your data, we colour-code your data to reflect the year level at which each student is working allowing you to see the spread of abilities of the students in your school. We don’t just give you an average, we compare your scores against the state and/or national benchmarks to give you an understanding of where your students sit compared to other students in Australia.
SPAstandard+ produces reports that allow you to interpret and monitor the growth of individual students, groups of students and whole school cohorts quickly and easily. What’s more, we compare your growth to state and/or national average growth.
By simply uploading your school’s data, SPAstandard+ instantly analyses and displays your results allowing your staff to easily identify current student performance, long term school trends and how much "value added learning" is occurring in your school. Staff can also effortlessly identify student misconceptions and/or gaps in knowledge or curriculum delivery. Because the software does all the hard work of compiling and analysing the data, your staff can have deeper conversations around what the data is saying about your curriculum program and implications for teaching.
Some of the tests SPAstandard+ can analyse. This list of constantly growing.
SPAstandard+
SPAstandard+ produces colour coded graphs and tables that enable you to easily identify individual students working well below, above & at expected curriculum levels for all tests allowing your staff to pinpoint and target students' learning needs. We colour-code your scores against the state and/or national average and against curriculum standards to give you an understanding of where your students sit.
Trend Analysis
SPAstandard+ uses your accumulated data to produce line graphs and tables that illustrate patterns or trends in your school's typical performance.
Growth Scatter Plots
For all tests SPAstandard+ matches cohorts of students together to produce data tables and graphs that enable you to view how much value your teachers are typically adding between tests. Compare within and between year results to monitor student growth.

Thank you so much, What a wonderful achievement for you all. We are so excited to have everything in one place. The NAPLAN analysis is great, particularly the scatter plots that I was doing in excel documents. Thanks again and we look forward to the continued improvements.
I just wanted to let you know after looking at the new SPAplatform edition with Naplan & ZPD.... I think its awesome. It so much easier, cleaner and accessible very quickly. Thanks so much for your hard work
