Allow Exam Arrangements to be added against more than one exam code for a pupil
Many pupils have an exam arrangement for just one subject but most subjects often have two papers each with their own exam code. Current iSams system only allows one exam code to be added per pupil so e.g. Joe who has a processor for just English ...
We are unable to upload component results into iSAMS. Our results are received from the SQA in an Excel spreadsheet and we have to send a screenshot to pupils with their component results, which is not ideal and time consuming. It would be helpful...
Ability to specify where exam arrangements comes from
SEN info in Pupil Registers flows through to Exams, which is great. But EAL info in Pupil Registers does not. We would want things like extra time and dictionaries recorded in either Register to populate Exams. Otherwise, what is the point of bein...
Allow creation of additional access arrangements in Exams Manager
We have students who are allowed a practical assistant in exams but there is no way of adding that or any different arrangements from those already avalable on iSAMS at the moment. Would be great if we could add arrangements as needed.
The ability for staff to add text with basic formatting in place such as italics or bold. Example below Pupil much enjoyed studying Orwell’s novel 'Animal Farm…'

Missing reports feature should also apply to Assessments
Apparently the Missing Reports tool is not set up to work with Assessment cycles, only with Report cycles. It would be really useful to be able to see which assessments are missing.
Multiple registers is presently an all or nothing feature. Suggestion for a future update whereby lunch / tutor time can be the exception to this rule e.g. when a teacher teaches the same class before lunch as after lunch
A student being present the lesson before lunch say Physics but then leaves school at lunch time/during pm tutor time is still being marked automatically present for the Physics lesson after lunch.
Enable Teacher Cover Rota to be viewed via iTeacher App
When a manual Teacher Cover Rota is in place, it would be beneficial to be able to view this via the iTeacher app in order to be able to email the timetabled teachers directly and arrange last minute cover if away from your desk.
There are so many inadequacies with the module that one wonders if new modules are tested with real school staff before being rolled out. It doesn't pick up data from Tracking Manager or Report Manager to make it easy to show historic grades/score...
