What Ampil is for

Ampil helps schools turn assessment marks into a clear picture of what pupils can and can't yet do. Instead of recording a single test score, teachers enter marks question by question. Ampil groups those questions by topic and shows a RAG (red / amber / green) verdict for every topic, class and pupil — so you can see exactly where to focus teaching and revision.

The core idea

1. Admins set up the framework — subjects, schemes of work (the list of topics), classes, tests and the questions in each test.
2. Students submit their own marks question by question — this is the recommended, primary source of the question-level data that powers Ampil's topic analysis.
3. Teachers verify and back up that data — they record each pupil's overall total as a check that the entries add up (and as a fallback where a pupil hasn't submitted), and can override a pupil's marks where something needs correcting. They then review the resulting RAG analysis, markbooks and reports.
4. Leaders run assessment windows across a whole year group — ranking pupils, allocating grades against a profile, and signing the results off.
5. Students also see their own results: how they compare to the class, their strengths and targets by topic, an estimated grade, and a revision list.

Key ideas you'll meet

The four roles

• Student — sees their own results and revision.
• Teacher — enters marks and reviews their classes.
• Leader — analyses whole year groups and runs assessment windows.
• Admin — sets up and maintains everything for the school.
