To access "Pupil report" select it from the left hand menu
- You will need to select the two periods of time in which you will view the pupil’s progress
- Select how iASEND will calculate the progress. This is by using the drop-down menu ‘ASEND’ (Pupil Curriculum: includes statements from the pupil's assigned curriculum. Overall: includes all statements from A curriculum up to the D curriculum. A/S/E/N/D: includes statements for the select curriculum)
- Select a pupil from the list (use the filters at the top of the page to narrow the list)
This page then shows:
The report will show all subjects turned on for your school, if a pupil has not data for a subject then it will just show 0 for each depth of learning and for progress. If you print the page then any subjects with no data against then won't appear.

The recommended progress the children should be making per year is:
A Progress =5%
S Progress =7%
E Progress =10%
N Progress =12%
D Progress =15%
These can be accessed by clicking the pop up.
The reason why the children are expected to make these measures of progress over the course of a year and not 100% is best explained using an example:
Let us take a child working at D (that's KS3), 100% would be the whole of KS3, which is 3 years (7,8,9). That means per year, an expected child would be making 33 percent, a year. However, for the children to be on IASEND, we know they are making much smaller steps.
15% means they should be getting half a year's curriculum attained each year. The percentage gets smaller the further we go back. This is because a child working at A (P1-4), is likely to have much more significant barriers that those working higher up the scale. This will mean their progress is a lot slower than that of a child, who is working at KS1.
The exact percentages were calculated using Dr Sue Fisher’s research for her doctorate in assessing SEND and her experience as a Headteacher of a special school. We have approximately 6,000 children on iASEND currently (2025).
