00:00.000 --> 00:10.000
In this video, you'll learn how the school admin workspace is organized and how to read your dashboard so that you leave it knowing which grade needs your attention this week.

00:10.000 --> 00:16.000
Sign in and ascend opens on your school overview. Everything here is scoped to your school.

00:16.000 --> 00:26.000
Five areas in the navigation, overview, configuration, user management, content and reports, plus help and tutorials.

00:26.000 --> 00:35.000
The dashboard opens with your headline counts, total students, total assessments, average growth score and total grades.

00:35.000 --> 00:40.000
Grade-wise student distribution shows how your students spread across grades.

00:40.000 --> 00:44.000
The notifications panel is the most useful thing on this page.

00:44.000 --> 00:52.000
It flags grades with no average score, low performing grades, and how many assessments are configured.

00:52.000 --> 00:59.000
The low performance alert names the grade directly. That's your starting point, not a chart you have to interpret.

00:59.000 --> 01:06.000
The grade performance overview compares the average growth index score and student count across different grades.

01:06.000 --> 01:11.000
The subject mix shows which subjects are active and how many assessments each has.

01:11.000 --> 01:15.000
The growth trend shows movement in points across the period.

01:15.000 --> 01:22.000
Assessment volume and teacher coverage tell you whether assessment activity is spread evenly or concentrated.

01:22.000 --> 01:26.000
Score bands show how many students sit in each performance band.

01:26.000 --> 01:34.000
The school growth snapshot shows the school's overall growth since the start of the year and the number of students currently on track.

01:34.000 --> 01:37.000
The grade summary table is where you act.

01:37.000 --> 01:48.000
Each grade shows its students, assessments, average growth in points and a result status, needs attention, monitoring, improving or on track.

01:48.000 --> 01:51.000
Read status alongside growth.

01:51.000 --> 01:55.000
A grade marked improving with positive growth needs monitoring.

01:55.000 --> 01:59.000
A grade marked needs attention with no movement needs a meeting.

01:59.000 --> 02:05.000
Leave this page with one grade in mind, then open its diagnostic report.
