We use the same live data to provide LAs and Schools with similar dashboards to Ofsted but based on LIVE, early data

Works for EYFSP, Phonics, KS1, KS2 and KS3. LAs can choose when to switch on and make visible to schools

Schools see the same data as the Local Authority but inside Perspective or Perspective Lite Option to print to PDF – report looks same as on screen!
