At-risk students

Students the platform has flagged as needing intervention, with the reason and the suggested next step.

The list

Each student appears with three things:

• Status — how serious: at risk, or critical.
• Why — the evidence behind the flag.
• Next step — what to do about it.

That third column is the point of the screen. A flag with no action is just anxiety; here each one carries a suggested response, which you can accept, adapt or overrule.

How a student gets flagged

The flag weighs several signals together, principally mastery of assessed topics and engagement with the platform. A student who has stopped signing in and whose mastery is low will surface faster than one with a single weak subject.

Two consequences worth knowing:

• A new class produces flags. At the start of a subject almost every topic is unassessed, so mastery reads low across the board. Early in a term, treat the list as a prompt to check, not a verdict.
• Flags clear when the evidence changes. Once assessments come in and engagement picks up, students drop off. A student who stays here across several weeks is the one to act on.

Empty state

Nobody here — and beneath it, that no students are currently at risk. That is genuinely good news, not a failed load. A failed load says so separately.

From flag to action

The next step is usually one of:

• A conversation with the class teacher, who has the detail behind the subject.
• A behaviour note or a parent contact, via Behaviour and School Bulletins.
• Re-teaching, if Curriculum shows the class covered the topic quickly.
