Have a Way of Viewing Component Results within iSAMS

It is possible to pull out component results using an SSRS report. However, there are no screens directly within the Exams Manager module to view these results. Almost all exam boards are now releasing component results and staff need an easy way ...

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...

Seating plans should show when a candidate has Arrangement Notes

It would be useful if seating plans - in addition to stating when a candidate has, e.g., 25% extra time or a Word Processor - could show when a candidate has additional EAA notes, so that invigilators know that they need to check what these are. I...

External Exam Arrangements to be customizable for IB requirements

Exam arrangements

The options available for access arrangements for exams are not completely meeting the needs that our pupils have. We would ideally need a 'colour overlay' tick box and a 'other' tick box. This would meet needs such as fidget toys, ear defenders, etc

Room wizard

1 On the stage when you are able to remove pupils from the seating plan with the green 'tick' to red 'no entry' symbol. If you then change to candidate number rather than surname - the next step - all your work disappears. The stages need to be sw...

When doing entries CANDIDATES need to be in CANDIDATE NUMBER order

At the moment while doing entries you have candidates in order of their Surnames. It is impossible to change it to do this in the candidate number order. Both orders should be selectable according to the user's wish.

Seating Plan Wizard - order candidates by extra-time, deselect all.

It would be useful in the seating plan wizard Step 2 to be able to deselect all candidates and also to be able to sort by extra/access arrangement. Then all typists could easily be found for allocating to a different room for example. Rather than ...
