SQA Results Upload

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...

One Exams Module for External and Internal Exams

To save iSAMs development, why not have just one exams module that serves for external & internal exams, especially as you can already customise basedata in the external module. That would save set up, time, money etc for schools too. You coul...

Seating Plans links to Room cover in Cover Manager

When doing seating plans, the room that is being used should be linked with the cover manager. This was when doing cover that room can be re-roomed. Otherwise this is double work and if you forget to add it, chaos on the day of the exam.

Teacher Access to Forecasts
